This study aimed to understand how staff perceive the support of Comfort Corner - a chaplain-led program - on resilience, provision of care, team engagement, and turnover, and to describe the self-care behaviors among Comfort Corner attendees. A sample of convenience included 384 completed surveys. Among the respondents, there were high levels of mental (80%), emotional (77%), and physical (82%) fatigue. Most (59%) continue to practice self-care strategies outside of hospital hours to sustain wellbeing. Nearly all agreed Comfort Corner enhanced self-care knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSA) (90%), resilience (88%), mood (97%), clarity (90%), and energy (92%). A majority (87%) reported safer care provision and 90% cited better teamwork. Of importance, 23% identified Comfort Corner as a factor in their decision to remain in the hospital. Survey respondents value the support from Comfort Corner. Additional longitudinal studies are needed to understand Comfort Corner's action mechanisms and its indirect effects on patient outcomes.","PeriodicalId":45330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147844265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some health care chaplains engage in structured fellowship activities after CPE to expand and improve their expertise in clinical spiritual care. We conducted a retrospective investigation of recurring consult case reflections from chaplain fellows (n = 10) enrolled in a 2-year Compassion-Centered Spiritual Health (CCSH) fellowship program. We compared the fellows' first and last 10 reflections to identify changes in the fellows' reported activities and in the language that they used to reflect on their attunement during the consults. In the last 10 reflections, fellows attributed patient distress to a wider array of sources and were more likely to report using mindful grounding and cultivating a warmhearted presence with patients. When reflecting on their self-attunement, fellows used fewer discrepancy words (e.g., would) and more positive emotion language in the final 10 reflections. These results suggest that fellows diversified their activities with patients and used less dichotomous thinking to discuss their attunement as they became more experienced. This research provides insight into the cultivation of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills essential for high-quality chaplaincy care.","PeriodicalId":45330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147618988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Part 1 of a two-part scoping review, we examine chaplains' collaborative and leadership roles in interprofessional healthcare teams through mapping the existing research literature. We analyzed 53 empirical studies that met the inclusion criteria. Six collaborative roles for chaplains were identified: relationship and communication facilitation, consultation for whole-person care, education, staff support, research collaboration, and collaborative leadership. The latter category included five additional characteristic interprofessional leadership roles: leading by spiritual care expertise, fostering interprofessional collaboration, mediation and conflict management, advocacy and change leadership, and improving decision-making. In the service of whole-person care, we discuss research contributions and gaps, implications for practice, and recommendations for future research.","PeriodicalId":45330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy","volume":" ","pages":"109-139"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145151408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As interprofessional spiritual care models continue to evolve, existing research on chaplains' collaboration and leadership remains limited. In Part 2 of a two-part scoping review, we examine the factors that influence chaplains' collaboration and leadership. The review included 53 studies to map the relevant literature. Our analysis identified (a) four key factors: relational factors, the professional chaplain role, attitudes influencing collaboration, and leadership action, and (b) two contextual factors: power dynamics and organizational conditions that provide an embedded environment, dynamically shaping and interacting with facilitators and barriers. Findings provide valuable insights for the effective integration of chaplains in interprofessional practice and illuminate the need for proactive approaches from both chaplains and healthcare systems. Incorporating interprofessional education and shared experiences throughout chaplaincy training and professional development is essential to enhance chaplains' ability to collaborate and lead in interprofessional settings.","PeriodicalId":45330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy","volume":" ","pages":"140-165"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145151392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HM has CPE programs with students in both Monterrey, Mexico and Houston, Texas, United States of America (US). Participants included 17 students from Mexico and the United States (US) who were interviewed individually or in small groups regarding their experiences with the program. Students from Mexico were interviewed in Spanish and the US students were interviewed in English. The study received institutional review board approval. All interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim, with students receiving pseudonyms. The methodology utilized was qualitative interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). The research team, composed of three chaplains, one educator and one researcher, coded all interviews twice. Thirteen themes emerged leading to the overall conclusion that the program is very successful at helping chaplain students step out of their comfort zone, grow in compassion, confidence and competence when working with patients, families and staff who represent different cultures and ethnicities than themselves. Themes were matched with Association of Clinical Pastoral Education (ACPE) Level IIA Outcome Indicators demonstrating that the program aids students in meeting several competencies.","PeriodicalId":45330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147515555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
