Summary

This completed study placed a full-time chaplain in a primary care clinic to see how often patients and doctors asked for spiritual or emotional support. Researchers tracked what topics patients discussed with the chaplain and tested a way for clinic staff to identify who might benefit. The goal was to learn how a chaplain fits into routine medical care, not to test a treatment.
