AnnotationHealth care professionals who wish to work holistically face many questions about spirituality. The author, a dietitian, began to explore and discuss spirituality with a research group, two educational groups, and a Journey into Faith group. Her book draws on this experience to provide guidelines for multi-professional health care teams in exploring the relevance of spirituality and to integrate it into their work. The aim is to provide a multi-disciplinary, whole person approach to health care, whereby health care professionals and nursing staff can respond appropriately to their patients' spiritual concerns.
