Spirituality in Hospice Palliative Care By:Paul Bramadat,Harold Coward,Kelli I. Stajduhar Published on 2013-08-01 by SUNY Press Explores the end-of-life spiritual needs of people who do not identify with traditional religions. This groundbreaking book addresses the spiritual aspect of hospice care for those who do not fit easily within traditional religious beliefs and categories.

This book aims to inform and explain, as well as to be thoughtprovoking and even controversial. Patiently and thoroughly,the authors consider why and how, when and where religion (andspirituality) are at stak...
