Spiritual Care
Connect to sources of strength and meaning
Haverut’s spiritual caregivers offer various resources of spiritual support to patients, families, and staff members in individual and group settings.
Spiritual Resources
There are many ways to engage with our emotional and spiritual facets: breathing and relaxation techniques; composing a personal prayer; poetry and music; creative arts, discourse, connecting to nature; and joint study. Participants are encouraged to look directly at their fear of dying and the challenges of dealing with weakness, old age, and illness.
Spiritual caregivers also provide support to the medical and nursing staff in coping with the stress and attrition of their jobs. Working with both individuals and groups, we offer participants sources of inspiration and spiritual sustenance, and engage in meaningful dialogue according to the particular needs, character, and interests of the staff members.
