Spiritual Support

For Patients and Faith Communities

We place great importance on helping people find spiritual peace in the faith of their choice. Our non-denominational chaplains serve as spiritual advisers and:

Visit for conversation, prayer, inspirational and scriptural readings, etc.
Find/arrange specifically requested religious and spiritual rituals, including communion, ceremonial rites, meaningful music, etc.
Assist in life reviews
Officiate or assist with funeral planning

We also support both clergy and congregation by providing comprehensive and sensitive information about difficult topics, such as:

How Hospice Care Works
What You Need to Know About Caregiving
Caregiving: How your faith community can support those caring for loved ones
Grief and Loss
End-of-life Care (issues common to life-limiting illnesses)

Capital Hospice also provides support for faith communities during times of community crisis by facilitating discussion of events and how individuals and faith communities can cope.
