A volunteer chaplain provides chaplain services to patients who request a clergy visit and who are either not affiliated with a church or have been unable to contact their affiliated church to request a visit. The hospital chaplain will sensitively and prayerfully minister to each patient at the patient’s point of need. The hospital chaplain does not function as a spokesperson of a particular religious denomination or body, but rather respects the spiritual and religious diversity of the patient. This may include end-of-life situations.
Two chaplains are scheduled "on call" at a time for 1-2 weeks per month.
