Abstract

ABSTRACT The population of the United States increasingly identifies as not religious or as spiritual but not religious. Though this cultural shift is more noticeable among younger generations, there is growing evidence that generalized spiritual care activities are needed in post-acute care facilities. This paper presents a case study of an eight-week “Spirituality and Life” discussion group that was developed to address such a gap in spiritual supports. The paper discusses the anecdotal primary and secondary gains of the group and reflects on the perceived benefits through the theoretical lenses of reminiscence therapy. Two sample formats of group discussions are provided, and suggestions are made for rigorous future studies of such groups.
