The
STANDARDS
OF PRACTICE FOR PASTORAL
CARE
Standards of Practice are authoritative statements that describe broad responsibilities for which practitioners are accountable. It provides direction for practice and a framework for the evaluation of practice. These standards will provide valuable guidance for the way that pastoral care is provided by individual practitioners. But importantly, this will also provide a reference for best practice within institutions, as well as for the religious and faith bodies which encourage and sponsor the provisioning of pastoral care with chaplains and spiritual carers.
»Standards of Practice
The Board of the Council presented this report at the July general meeting, inviting member organisations to consider, in anticipation of a recommendation that these standards were adopted by the November Annual Meeting of the Pastoral Care Council of the ACT.
