Parish Nursing is a specialized practice of professional nursing open to registered nurses promoting health, healing and wholeness within a faith community. Health is viewed from a whole-person perspective- body, spirit and mind. Parish Nurses are professional nurses responding to a "calling" in which ministry shapes the nursing practice.
 

The Parish Nurse serves as: * Spiritual Caregiver * Health Promoter * Health Counselor * Health Advocate * Health Educator * Care Coordinator * Community Resource Agent * Program Manager
