The Palmerston North Hospital Spiritual Care team provide spiritual support for patients, relatives and hospital staff.

Why should I see a spiritual care person?

Spiritual care can help you feel more connected with yourself, the environment, other people or to something sacred. It is about the beliefs, traditions, values and practices that are important to you. Spiritual care supports what gives meaning and purpose to your life. 

People who are ill often ask themselves serious questions about life and death like:

• Why am I suffering?
• Does my life have any value?
• What is the purpose of it all?

Sometimes it helps to have someone alongside to think these things through. This is our role, to listen and support your process of meaning making. 

Like all hospital staff we are bound by strict confidentiality rules.
