加州大学旧金山分校的精神关怀

Chaplains representing many faiths are available around the clock to be a caring presence, offer spiritual and emotional support, and listen with openness and understanding. 病人, 家庭 and staff are encouraged to call a chaplain when experiencing fear, 愤怒, 孤独, 无助, 焦虑, grief or loss or when they just need someone to talk to. Chaplains also are available for times of celebration, 祈祷 and rituals.

We are available to support all our patients, whatever their spiritual path may be. 病人 do not need to be affiliated with a congregation or faith community to call a chaplain. 然而, 如果你确实属于一个社区, we can notify a faith community of your choice to arrange for a visit. 你的部长, 拉比, 伊玛目, priest or other spiritual adviser may visit you or your family member at any time.
