A Source of Strength
Faith is a source of strength and hope during times of need. We believe the healing process is greatly enhanced by honoring the spiritual needs of our patients, visitors, and employees.
Respect for All Faiths & Beliefs
Our chaplains respect and accommodate persons of all faiths and beliefs. Some chaplains also speak Spanish and other languages.
A Compassionate Connection
A chaplain may visit to offer support during your stay. At your request, a chaplain is also available to visit, notify your clergy or place of worship of a religious need, or connect you with a priest, rabbi, imam, or spiritual leader in the community. Please know chaplain services can also be declined.
Communion & Other Rites
Catholic Eucharistic ministers from local parishes come during the week to distribute communion to Catholic patients. Additional faith practices such as sacraments, rites, and specific rituals of your tradition are available by request.

Our Chapel is open 24 hours a day for prayer and reflection. Feel free to light a candle to honor your petition or praise. The Chapel is located on the ground floor near the Main Entrance across from Interview and Assessment.
