Spiritual Care

Our Approach

In serving our mission, we strive to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of our patients, families and staff. Our activities are built on a foundation of respecting different faith communities and cultures while providing compassionate, spiritual care. Together we can address spiritual needs that impact patient healing and wholeness.

Our spiritual care team focuses on:

• Providing spiritual comfort, counsel and support to patients and their families according to their spiritual values and needs
• Helping patients and their families draw upon their spiritual resources as an important element in the healing and recovery process
• Advocating for patient rights in regard to spiritual, cultural and psychological values, which can impact a patient's behavior and their support system's response to their care
• Guiding patients and families in the religious and spiritual aspects of critical decision-making, including end-of-life decisions, advance directives and clinical ethics consultations
