A development phase preceded an on-line survey completed by chaplains and pastoral practitioners (n = 40) employed by a major Australian aged care provider. The survey covered the purpose of pastoral care, key tasks and resources, current and future challenges, and participants’ responses to challenges. The biggest issue was heavy demand on participants’ time, due to insufficient staff and demanding organisational procedures. A commonly mentioned challenge with future implications was increasing resident acuity. Respondents were dedicated and enthusiastic, despite heavy workloads and occasional difficulty working with care staff or management.
