| Summary: | Recognizing multiple challenges in the delivery of spiritual care, Fraser Health conducted a review of their spiritual care services in comparison to the spiritual care delivered in other Canadian health regions/authorities (2005–2006). Based on data received from the other health service areas, Fraser Health staff, and community focus groups, along with a review of literature and best practices, a reconstruction of spiritual care delivery has been initiated. This article outlines the results of a Canadian survey of health care chaplains, stakeholder consultations, and the implications for spiritual care delivery in Canada. The newly developed Fraser Health Tenets and Model for Spiritual Care, along with the recommendations of the project for the reconstruction and enhancement of spiritual care delivery in Fraser Health are discussed. |
