Abstract
Members of a Catholic hospital's spiritual care team retrospectively examined the lived experience of being gifted a prayer shawl (PS) in hospital, to ensure that patients and their support networks were finding value in receiving these transitional objects. Recipients expressed gratitude and drew meaning and value from their lived experience of using a PS in hospital. Overall, the shawls were well received and served as a source of emotional support and hope.
