Spiritual Care for Cancer Patients

The diagnosis of cancer may create feelings of sadness, fear or anger. Chaplains can provide care to you, your family and children.

As part of your medical team, Chaplains can help you deal with your feelings and provide support throughout your medical treatments. Chaplains can sit and listen to you, pray with you, and provide spiritual resources.

Chaplains are here for people of all religious faiths. You may call the Chaplain from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday at 410-328-6014, or ask your nurse to page him or her. On weekends, your nurse can page a Chaplain if you are in need.

Other resources available through the Pastoral Care Office include:

• Meditation tapes and music
• Bibles, Korans, Rosaries, Menorahs, and Kosher refrigerators
• Baptism, Confession, Communion, Anointing and Marriage
• Resources for Jewish Patients
• Resources for Muslim Patients
