Chaplaincy care is grounded in initiating, developing, and deepening a mutual and empathic relationship with patients, families and staff. The development of genuine relationships is at the core of chaplaincy care and underpins, even enables, all dimensions of chaplaincy care. While the fields of hospice and palliative care differ, it is recognized that both specialties of care are on a continuum that is complementary and collaborative.
