Research summary
My research is on the topic of Spiritual Assessment and Care in an acute Hospital setting and will involve interviews with Staff Nurses since they are required to carry out spiritual assessments and provide spiritual care to patients. My research will seek to establish the perspective of such staff and their level of confidence in carrying out this aspect of their work and to seek their views as to what support they might require. From this I will seek to establish how the most appropriate form of support for them in this area can be provided.
