title: Spiritual care in a crisis: what is enough?
abstract: Nurses encounter crisis regularly. What are appropriate spiritual interventions? Christians are encouraged to use every opportunity to be a witness for Christ. Should nurses share their faith in times of crisis? The experience of a nurse caring for a mother after perinatal loss is explored by a philosopher, mental health clinical nurse specialist, and the nurse, who wonders if she should have done things differently.
