Celebrating Spiritual Care Week, Care Dimensions Honors Hospice Chaplains

In celebration of Spiritual (Pastoral) Care Week, October 23 - 29, Care Dimensions recognizes our 21 chaplains for the outstanding professional chaplaincy and pastoral counseling they provide patients at end of life. As part of our interdisciplinary teams, our chaplains care for patients wherever they live: in their homes, in skilled nursing facilities and assisted living communities, in hospitals, and at our two inpatient hospice facilities in Lincoln and Danvers.

“Our chaplains are the women and men who live our mission every day to deliver and coordinate spiritual support, comfort, strength and peace to patients and their families,” said Care Dimensions President and CEO Stephanie Patel, MD. “Chaplains are a very important part of the comprehensive team available to each Care Dimensions hospice patient. They give ecumenical guidance and pastoral support in accordance with each family’s wishes and belief system.”
