Chaplaincy in Hospice and Palliative Care is a thoughtful exploration of the role of hospice chaplains in an increasingly secular society. This comprehensive guide examines the tension between sacred and secular space, spiritual care in a changing world, and the voice of a chaplain within a hospice team.

It reflects on the important work undertaken by hospice chaplaincies and explains why they remain a vital resource for end-of-life care. This insightful book is an essential read for anyone working in or with hospice settings, offering practical guidance and reflection on the unique role of chaplains in palliative care.
