Very few care homes have chaplains or pastoral carers. This means that Activity Coordinators are often left to handle spiritual issues.
You don’t need to have additional qualifications to be eligible to provide spiritual care. You just need to have a caring heart, understand the value of spiritual care and know how to access information in order to meet the spiritual care needs of your residents.
In this article we cover:
- The Differences Between Religion and Spirituality
- The Pastoral Care Philosophy for Spiritual Care
- Activity Ideas to meet Spiritual Needs
- Activity Ideas to meet Religious Needs
