Cet article suggère comment les médecins pourraient réagir lorsque les patients ou les familles soulèvent des préoccupations concernant la religion ou la spiritualité. En répondant à ces préoccupations et aux besoins spirituels et religieux des patients, les médecins peuvent les aider ainsi à trouver du confort en fin de la vie. Trois cas sont analysés dans lesquels répondre à ces préoccupations aide les médecins notamment à soulager la détresse des patients.
