Abstract

On behalf of CHCC Scotland, the author welcomes ‘Spiritual Care in NHSScotland,’ while recognising that much depends on its local implementation. Its clarification of the nature of spiritual care, the role of the care giver and the sharing of patient information is timely. Reservation is however expressed about the role of the proposed Spiritual Care Committee.
