Were here for you - hello
from the Spiritual and Pastoral Care Team
We are pleased to have this opportunity to let you know
something of the support that is available to you, through our
team, during your stay in hospital.
We offer a listening ear and sensitive support for those of any
faith and for those who do not have religious beliefs, always
respecting your own life situation.
The help we offer is confidential, non-judgmental, sympathetic
and often practical. For some this will be support for religious
needs such as prayers, a service of blessing or baptism or helping
you make contact with your faith community. For others it might be
a chat, a safe place to share concerns, explore questions or
reflect on decisions. For many it will mean support by just ˜being
there at their times of need.
A place of peace and quiet
There are multi-faith spaces for people to come and have some
time out and be still with their thoughts and concerns. In these
rooms there is a book in which you can write your thoughts and
prayers and also several resources that you may find helpful. These
include a copy of the Bible, the Koran and holy books from other
faiths, various artifacts and also Muslim prayer mats. You can also
find out which Faith Festivals are taking place during the month
and there are books with information on local contacts and meeting
places for all the major faith traditions.
