This project develops a Spiritual Assessment instrument and a program of spirituality classes for use by hospital chaplains in psychiatric residential treatment programs, testing the process at Miami Veteran Affairs Medical Center. The project finds that patients who attend more classes and a higher percentage of classes improve their Spiritual Assessment Scores (SAS), but a higher SAS does not lead to a shorter length of stay (LOS). Those who exhibit the greatest improvement in SAS do have a shorter LOS, primarily because they attend classes consistently. Classes improve patients' sense of meaning and purpose, peace when circumstances are beyond control, reconciliation with past events, and hope for the future.
