Abstract
A 90-minute focus group was conducted with five male and two female Jewish professional chaplains from Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox backgrounds. This study describes and discusses eight principal themes that emerged from the focus group: (a) the identity, (b) role, and (c) practices of a chaplain; (d) Jewish chaplaincy prayers; (e) practices for chronic versus acute care; (f) patients' reactions to the chaplain's gender; (g) general and spiritual interventions; and, finally, (h) challenges in chaplaincy.
