Exactly, although I think there shouldn't a chaplaincy service paid for by the NHS either.

I'm all for doctors ensuring that spiritual needs are met if patients request it, but they should be doing that by enabling patients to make contact with their preacher/guru/personal trainer and not by becoming involved themselves on the NHS's time.

Yeah I do tend to think that the chapliancy service in itself is _already_ (thats done for emphasis yeah?) a duplication of other services (psychological care and the like).
