Hospice care begins with an assessment by a nurse case manager, who works with the patient, family, the treating physician, and our hospice medical director to create a plan of care. The idea is not to prolong life, but rather to improve quality of life, manage symptoms, and help the patient remain comfortable during end of life. An integral member of the hospice team, the Chaplin is a medical professional who plans, assesses, and cares for a patient’s spiritual needs throughout the end-of-life process. All spiritual counseling services are performed in accordance with the patient’s wishes and are completely optional. Simply put, the role of the Chaplin is to meet the patient wherever they are on their spiritual journey and help them find a sense of peace at the end of life.
