In spite of a significant body of scholarship and numerous policy recommendations to promote spiritually sensitive health care, many factors block the full realization of this goal. Barriers include inadequate administrative support of professional chaplaincy services, discomfort and uncertainty among licensed medical practitioners, and conflicting public policies.

520 $a In spite of a significant body of scholarship and numerous policy recommendations to promote spiritually sensitive health care, many factors block the full realization of this goal. Barriers include inadequate administrative support of professional chaplaincy services, discomfort and uncertainty among licensed medical practitioners, and conflicting public policies.
520 $a The purpose of this study was to develop a middle-range theory to elucidate the potentially helpful and feasible actions related to law, policy, and society that can be implemented to promote, support, or improve spiritually sensitive care in hospital settings.
520 $a The grounded theory method of inquiry was used. Grounded theory is a qualitative, inductive process that leads to the emergence of middle-range theory out of the data collected from observation, experience, and reflection. Data were analyzed using the concept-mapping system created by Concept Systems, Inc.RTM to generate a series of maps to illustrate the theoretical model that emerged. Twenty-six licensed medical professionals volunteered to participate in this study. Each met the inclusion criteria, which required at least one unit of clinical pastoral education or other training in pastoral care and work experience in a hospital setting within the last seven years.
520 $a The resulting middle-range theory represents the collective opinions of this sample of clinicians who share the "insider" view of the challenges faced in addressing the spiritual needs of patients in hospital settings. Using this theoretical framework to guide decision-making related to research, education, and scholarship will help to ensure that future work occurs in a logical and efficient manner, enabling scholars, policymakers, and clinicians to address what are perceived to be the most helpful and feasible next steps.
