The National Council of Hospice and Palliative Professionals (NCHPP) Spiritual Caregiver Section Steering Committee recently completed a survey of spiritual care providers and supervisors. With over 1000 participants, this survey provides a wealth of information about the qualifications and experience of those providing spiritual care, the spiritual needs they are addressing, the interventions they are providing and the education they are requesting. The survey results will be presented and discussed in this session.
