Pastoral Care at HealthAlliance-Clinton
Pastoral Care Services at HealthAlliance-Clinton Hospital support your psychosocial, spiritual and religious needs with compassion, attentive listening and unconditional acceptance.
We recognize the stress, anxiety, fear or loneliness that can accompany illness, and many patients and families find it helpful to talk to a chaplain or clergy for support during such times. Your own clergy is welcome to visit with you as well.
If you’d like a visit from a chaplain, please ask your nurse. We would be happy to arrange that for you.
