Slowly, the news is spreading ... and it worries me. 

Fraser Health Region in BC has eliminated the position of chaplains/spiritual care directors from their area hospitals.  Budgets are tight ... so they say 'non-core services' have to go ... despite the research to support the key role spiritual care plays in health & recovery.  The illusion continues that people 'get this care' in their communities ... which for many who arrive at our hospital doors is simply not true.
