Brief perspective suggests integrating spiritual lessons into healthcare enhances moral caregiving.
Medicine is inherently a spiritual profession; patients and health care professionals both seek meaning and connections beyond just themselves, especially in the context of crises. Yet, the spiritual aspects of care have fallen to the wayside, with the commercialization of the business of health care. In this brief perspective, I integrate lessons from theology and pastoral care into a busy clinical and educational setting to help reclaim the moral dimensions of the care giving relationship.
