abstract="OBJECTIVEs Spiritual support is an essential component to disaster response and recovery. The goals of this study were to (a) provide a qualitative examination of spiritual needs of recipients of disaster relief after Hurricane Sandy, as observed by spiritual care interns in &quot;verbatims&quot;; (b) demonstrate the feasibility of conducting research with providers of disaster spiritual care. <br><br>METHODS The study was accomplished through analysis (including codebook development and transcript coding) of written pastoral reports-aka &quot;verbatims&quot; ( n = 18)-as well as audio-recorded, transcribed seminars ( n = 23). Clinical Pastoral Education verbatims offer qualitative data in the form of confidential, anonymous reports of what the students do in the field. <br><br>RESULTS Analysis of coded transcripts yielded several themes and subthemes as results. Significance of Results Major themes include: (a) the feasibility of research for CPE students as subject; (b) the discussion of magnitude of the storm and aftermath, as a spiritual need in disaster;<br><br>(c) the relationship between &quot;normative crisis&quot; and disaster; (d) the use of metaphors and images to describe disaster experiences.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
