Meet Our Team
Our health care chaplains have earned a Master's Degree of Divinity and been ordained or endorsed by a religious group. They have also completed a residency program focused on ministering to those who are sick, injured or dying.
Chaplains at Deaconess are available Monday-Friday, 8 AM - 4:30 PM (and for emergencies after hours) to help patients and families find comfort in times of uncertainty. They play a critical role in patient care by supporting emotional and spiritual needs regardless of a person’s faith tradition.
