Spiritual Care
We recognize that health involves more than physical well-being. Illness, recovery, and life transitions can raise emotional, spiritual, cultural, and personal questions for patients and their families.
Spiritual Care supports the whole person by providing compassionate, respectful care that honours individual beliefs, values, traditions, and sources of strength.
Spiritual Care services are available to all patients and families, regardless of faith tradition, spirituality, cultural background, or religious affiliation.
How Spiritual Care Can Help
Patients and families may request spiritual care for support with:
- Illness, injury, or hospitalization

- Major life changes or difficult decisions

Our Spiritual Care Team provides a safe and supportive space for conversation, reflection, prayer, and spiritual support based on your individual needs and preferences.
