Hospital chaplains are often called during life's most difficult moments, but what exactly do they do? Dr. Eve Glazier speaks with Keith Wakefield, a hospital chaplain and manager of the Clinical Pastoral Education Program at UCLA Health, about the role of spiritual care in modern medicine and how chaplains support patients, families and care teams through illness, uncertainty and loss. They also reflect on the power of listening and why feeling heard can be a source of comfort during life's most challenging times.
