What does a Spiritual Care Counselor do?

The role of your Spiritual Care Counselor is to support you emotionally and spiritually. A Spiritual Care Counselor considers your religious and spiritual background to determine how best to help you and your family. They are a wonderful source of support for family members, friends, and caregivers who are facing or have experienced a loss. Bereavement support in conjunction with VNH Hospice begins at admission and will continue on for a year following a loved one’s death.
