Abstract
Abstract This article examines a case study of Spiritual Accompaniment Training in Pediatric Palliative Care (PCC) at the Sant Joan de Déu (SJD) Hospital in Barcelona, Spain. It describes the current level of training of PCC professionals in Spain and suggests action proposals to improve it. More specifically, the present study explores the challenges, needs, and gaps in the training of the health care professionals who provide pediatric palliative care and grief support in Spain. Furthermore, it investigates the skills and competences needed by pediatric health professionals in spiritual accompaniment care for both patients and their families by trying to specify the degree of spiritual competence. Finally, we propose a structured specialized training in spiritual care for PPC professionals which is based on a standardized Spiritual Accompaniment in Pediatric Palliative Care Training Program Care in Spain.KeywordsSpiritual careSpiritual accompaniment trainingPediatric palliative careSpiritual competencesPalliative care professional
