摘要:
AbstractChaplains are increasingly called on to demonstrate the value of their work as health care dollars shrink. This article describes three methods to accomplish that task. Primary attention is given to two recent research publications which report that persons who use religious/spiritual resources to cope with negative life events produce better outcomes. We explore the possibility of conducting similar studies with general hospital patients to test the benefits of pastoral care.
