Faith Community Nursing
Faith Community Nursing (also known as Parish Nursing) is rooted in the mission of the Church to build the Kingdom of God by serving those in need, and is a response to the call to share in Christ's healing mission through various spiritual and healthcare ministries.
Parish Nurses believe that God desires fullness of life for his people, and it is their blessed task to journey with the parishioners in their community toward wholeness of body, mind and spirit. The goal of the diocesan Office of Pastoral Care in its role as coordinator of the ministry of parish nursing is to invite, invigorate, inform and inspire healthcare professionals, including nurses, so that they can respond even more compassionately to the multi-faceted needs of parishioners at various stages of the life journey.
