Publisher's Synopsis
Helping to meet the spiritual and cultural needs of dying patients should be an important part of nursing care. And, in a multicultural society such as exists in Britain today, most nurses will, at some point, find themselves nursing a patient from different religious or cultural background to their own. However, the patient may not be able to make his or her wishes known, and there may be no relative to whom the nursing staff can turn for guidance on the rituals, prayers or observances the patient requires.
