Abstract

Key points Spiritual care is an important component of palliative care. Timely and comprehensive spiritual care can lead to improved patient care outcomes including pain relief and reduced opioid use in palliative care patients. Local religious and cultural factors need to be considered when providing spiritual care and developing services. The introduction and integration of current spiritual care education and quality frameworks into current curricula and practice is essential for the development of the field. A generalist‐specialist approach to spiritual care may improve both efficacy and scalability of services.
