What a chaplain does
This hospital's care is aimed at whole-person healing, attending to the spirit and mind as well as the body. Our chaplains, staff clergy attached to the hospital, support patients from a different vantage point than clinical staff.
We hope that, through this hospital's care, everyone here can encounter something of the gentle regard and lasting promise of God, the creator of life.
