Spring 2020
Hospitals were completely locked down to spiritual care from hospital chaplains this is including for end of life care. Due to was heavy restriction of hospital visitors chaplains went to a virtual form of spiritual support and care through Skype, phone call, and Facetime.
Summer 2020 – Spring 2021
Bible deliveries and Prayer shawl ministries took place throughout the pandemic
that religious/spiritual care providers (clergy and chaplains) are considered an extension of the care team and can be present in addition to designated family member/support persons with physical distancing being maintained. This restores our ability to provide spiritual care to patients and family at the same time.
Congregational volunteer visitors will not be able to visit in facilities until the guidelines change again.
