The Pastoral Care department at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore embarked on an evidence-based practice (EBP) project to identify best practices for improving nurses' well-being. This article describes the EBP model and its application. The project resulted in increased nurse awareness of the chaplain's role, nurses' confidence in using chaplain services, and nurses' well-being. The project's success indicates the value of chaplains learning an EBP model and incorporating it into their practice.

In this article, we present a model of chaplaincy in a secular age which includes, in one coherent system: domain, goal and an intervention pathway. The domain is presented as the process of "responding to life itself". A corresponding goal of chaplaincy is considered in the context of "existential well-being". This goal can be achieved through the proposed "The Ritual Bath Model" based on these new defined concepts.

I am a Jewish chaplain and I felt moved to write this letter to my esteemed colleague Imam Sohaib Sultan, of blessed memory. Sohaib and I each experienced our first unit of Clinical Pastoral Education together as part of the same cohort in the summer of 2008. Sohaib died tragically in 2021. Here, I reflect on how we might respond to the current Israel-Hamas War.

Mental health care that is open to patients' existential needs requires well-trained professionals who work in teams and use an open conceptualization of spirituality, religion and other meaning-making domains. Using a mixed methods approach, this article explores how professionals (n = 262) in secular Norway perceive obstacles and opportunities in existential care. The results show correlations between age group, personal religiosity, terminology and perceived expertise. Commitment is high, but collaboration with chaplains and team training are neglected.

The study found that pastors who agreed they were trained to manage a church ranked high in ministry satisfaction and low in emotional exhaustion compared to those who disagreed to receiving such training. This work has implications for seminaries, congregations, denominational leaders and clergy themselves to ensure clergy are properly prepared and continue their career journey. This study could be used to modify curricula at seminaries and produce post seminary training and educational information.

This paper surveys the current understanding of spiritually integrated psychotherapy (SIP) and connects the historical role of religious training to better understand how SIP is developing as a psychotherapy modality in Ontario, Canada. The paper clarifies how SIP is defined and proposes three levels of practice: spiritually conscious therapy, spiritually informed therapy, and spiritually integrated therapy. As evidence-based and practiced-based literature expands, more consensus is needed in how SIP terminology is used.
