The changing landscape of spirituality in healthcare: time travel across 3 decades

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

This talk offers reflections on a professional, but also deeply personal journey that has seen the place of spirituality within healthcare shift from being barely recognised three decades ago through to today where is it a core element within healthcare policy and a legitimate area of nursing practice underpinned by research and education. Time travel with me as I reflect on this journey: on the principles and people that have shaped it; on the bugbears that still exist; and on what needs to happen next to ensure that what’s important to the people nurses care for remains at the heart of what they do.
