About Your Spiritual Well-Being
We care not only for your physical health but we care for your spiritual well–being as well. Chaplains trained to work with people of all faiths are available to you 24-hours-a-day. A hospital chaplain can help patients or family members of all faiths with feelings and concerns about your hospitalization as well as provide emotional and spiritual support.
Chaplains can listen to you, pray with you and encourage you. If you wish to speak with a chaplain, please ask your nurse or call the Pastoral Care office at extension 8504. They are also available to educate you on the preparation for Advanced Directives for inpatient and outpatient procedures.
Chaplains are also available on call throughout the night and weekends. If you wish a chaplain to visit (there is never a charge for these visits) please ask your nurse to contact the Pastoral Care office between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. extension 8504, or to page the chaplain on call at beeper # 1133. Clergy of all faiths are welcome to visit their congregants. If you wish assistance in contacting your priest, rabbi, minister, or pastor, please contact the Pastoral Care office.
The Chapel for All Faiths is located on the main level of the Acute Care Building. The Chapel is always open for prayer and meditation. Your family and friends are welcome. In addition, Holy Day observances for all faith traditions are offered.
