Whatever diagnosis a person may have, their spiritual needs are the same as everyone else’s, the need to have their uniqueness recognised, appreciated and valued.

As requested, Quality Aging has researched and put together some fact sheets that may assist you in providing more person centred spiritual care.

These fact sheets are a  guide only and  not intended to replace one set of beliefs and practices with another; it is only intended to provide some insight into the religion. Nor does it reduce the importance of you establishing the individual religious needs of each person as part of your care planning process.
