Chaplaincy Services at Hospitals in St. John’s
When you are being admitted to a hospital in St. John’s you will be asked, “While you are admitted to hospital, would you like to have a visit from a chaplain or pastoral care worker?” Be sure to say “Yes” if you would like a pastoral visit. You will then be asked to identify your religion and your name will be added to the chaplain’s visitation list and you will then receive a visit from the denominational chaplain within a day or two.
Also, the Anglican, Roman Catholic, Salvation Army and United Church Chaplaincy Teams are participating in a pilot project to assess ways to share resources. From September 15 to December 15 the four denominations will share First-call Chaplain responsibilities at the hospitals in St. John’s. This means that one chaplain will receive all after-hours calls (5:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.). That (First-call) chaplain will respond to provide pastoral support and spiritual care. The First-call chaplain will determine if the chaplain from the patient’s own denomination is needed to provide particular services or supports. Patients and families can request their denominational chaplain, if they so wish. The denominational chaplains will follow-up with patients seen by the First-call Chaplain. Patients and families will have opportunity to provide feedback on this pilot project.
