In the Western Isles, the Community Chaplaincy Listening initiative has provided vital support since its pilot phase from March 2010 to March 2011, resulting in 33 referrals and excellent patient feedback. Participants, aged 20-89, reported positive experiences addressing issues like work-related stress, relationship challenges, bereavement, and chronic pain. The service fosters mutually beneficial partnerships among patients, families, and healthcare providers, promoting compassion, continuity, and shared decision-making in care. With only 5 missed appointments, the initiative highlights the significance of effective healthcare collaboration.
