The Brief Spiritual Assessment Scale
The Brief Spiritual Assessment Scale is a tool used by healthcare professionals to understand how a person’s spiritual beliefs and practices influence their well-being and coping strategies. It assesses aspects like personal faith, sense of meaning, and connection to something greater, which can impact health, recovery, and overall life satisfaction. By understanding a patient's spiritual perspective, caregivers can provide more holistic support that respects their values and helps address their emotional and spiritual needs alongside physical health.
