The hospital bed can be one of the loneliest places in the world.
Medical staff are often over worked and family may be unavailable to meet the emotional and spiritual needs of a patient in crisis.
Even in medical institutions outside of the hospital, you will find people in need of guidance and the listening ear that a chaplain can provide.
They are there to give vital care in some of life's most critical circumstances Chaplains are uniquely equipped to support the patient's belief system.
