Religious and spiritual care

Religious and spiritual care involves supporting individuals’ beliefs, values, and traditions to promote overall well-being, especially during health challenges or life transitions. It acknowledges that faith, spirituality, or a sense of meaning can provide comfort, hope, and strength. Often provided by trained caregivers or chaplains, this care respects diverse backgrounds and helps people find connection, purpose, or peace according to their beliefs, enhancing emotional and psychological resilience. It’s an integral part of holistic care, addressing not just physical health but also emotional and spiritual needs.
