Abstract

The purpose of the project was to identify patients' self-perceived beliefs and values that promote spiritual well-being. Thirty cancer patients were interviewed using questionnaires: one gathered personal background and medical information and the other assessed spiritual well-being. The findings indicated that religious beliefs were significant. Daily prayer was associated with spiritual well-being, but religious affiliation and church attendance were not. Recommendations included chaplains focusing on patients' religious concerns, and functioning out of their more traditional religious roles of comforter, liturgist, and witness.
