On this episode:
We speak to Ravinder Kaur, who is the head of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) at Staffordshire University.
Ravinder shares her knowledge and experience of being a Sikh, along with the rituals, celebrations and the considerations of how to care for patients from a Sikh faith. We learn just how important the Sikh rituals are, and the importance of the five K’s, which baptised Sikh’s wear at all times.
I also explore with Ravinder, the way in which the Sikh community care for their loved ones during their final moments, including the important aspects following this. We learn about a designated river here in the UK where ashes of loved ones can be scattered, just like they would have been in the Ganges river in India.
Web links from the show:
Census 2021 (Office for National Statistics)
524,000 people in England and Wales are of Sikh faith.
Singh (2016)
The Five K’s Kirpan (sword), Kangha (comb), Kesh (uncut hair), Kachh (shorts), Kara (steel bangle).
Lewis (2020)
Overview of the Sikh faith.
(Cann, 2022) (Choudry et al, 2018)
Studies showing important aspects for healthcare professionals.
Rivers used in UK for scattering ashes
Designated rivers in the UK have been approved for those within the Sikh faith to scatter the ashes of loved ones. This would normally be carried out at the ‘Ganges’ river in India.
