Pastoral Services
We have a strong tradition of pastoral service
in our hospitals, initially provided by the Sisters of St John of
God, but increasingly by qualified lay practitioners representing
not only the Catholic but also other main faith traditions.
Professionally qualified pastoral
practitioners and accredited chaplains who can attend to your
pastoral, emotional and spiritual needs are available to offer
support and encouragement while you are in hospital.
 |
This service is available to patients of all beliefs
and cultures. A Ministry of prayer and sacrament (including
Holy Communion) is available on request.
Your own religious practitioner is welcome to
visit you in the hospital at any time.
Please ask our staff if you want a visit from
a member of the Pastoral Services team.
