Sikh patients require chaplaincy support that is tailored to their religious beliefs and cultural traditions. Dr. Satwant Kaur Rait, an experienced hospital honorary chaplain, has authored an in-depth guide to this service. The book will be of immense value to chaplains, volunteers, and all individuals involved in offering religious assistance to Sikhs in hospitals and hospices. Extensive background material covers Sikh history, values, ceremonies, rituals, philosophy, and psychology. An overview of the development of Sikh chaplaincy and official guidelines sheds light on the necessity of these services. Dr. Rait emphasizes that a generic form of chaplaincy is insufficient. The role of a healthcare chaplain, Sikh religious care and rituals, end-of-life care, and bereavement are discussed in detail. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is also highlighted. Due to the inability of volunteer chaplains to work, many Sikh patients have been deprived of religious and spiritual support in hospitals. Dr. Rait's informative guide clearly demonstrates the importance of establishing greater inclusivity and accessibility in chaplaincy services for all faiths.
