Spiritual Care

A faith-based approach to care

Hospitalization and health issues can bring feelings of fear and vulnerability for both patients and their loved ones. As a faith-based healthcare system, we provide the spiritual support you may need to cope with these challenges. Between our compassionate chaplains and peaceful chapel, we'll help you connect with the hope, comfort, and peace of mind that’s rooted in your spirituality.

Our spiritual support services

From in-room chaplain visits to our peaceful chapel, we offer various ways to find the spiritual support you may need. 

Chaplain visits

Our on-site clinical chaplains are available to visit with you and/or your loved ones during your stay with us. Regardless of your spiritual or religious background, our chaplains can help by listening to your concerns, consoling you, praying with you, helping you work through hard decisions, or just lifting the weight you may be feeling. 

Connecting with your clergy

For patients who would like to connect with a member of their faith or clergy, our team will try to facilitate a visit or call. 

Chapel

Our chapel provides a peaceful space for you or your loved ones to pray or reflect. It is open 24/7 and located in the main concourse. 

Partner with us to make an impact

Our team uses several funds to help us serve our patients and the community as a whole. We invite you to partner with us by donating to any of our charitable funds or by praying for our patients and staff. Your support makes a difference in the lives of many.
