Chaplaincy, Cancer, Aged Care and COVID-19

Lindsay B Carey et al. J Relig Health. 2022 Apr.

Abstract

Four key topics are explored in this second issue of the Journal of Religion and Health for 2022. Following a condemnation of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, (1) the lead topic for this issue forms a special section regarding contemporary chaplaincy, which is followed by (2) ongoing research concerning cancer, (3) aged care and finally (4) the continuing response to COVID-19. Previous issues of JORH have presented various articles related to these topics before; however, this particular collation provides a resourceful anthology.

Keywords: Aged care; COVID-19; Cancer; Chaplaincy; Religion; Spirituality; Ukraine.
