Spiritual Counselors

Guiding You with Compassion and Expertise

At American Veterans Hospice, we recognize that end-of-life care is a journey that touches not just the body, but also the heart and soul. Our spiritual counselors are an integral part of our multidisciplinary team, providing spiritual support and comfort to patients and their families, regardless of their religious beliefs or spiritual orientations.

A Compassionate Presence

Our spiritual counselors are here to:

• Offer Emotional and Spiritual Support: They provide a listening ear, a comforting presence, and a safe space for patients and families to explore their feelings, fears, and hopes.

• Respect All Beliefs and Cultures: We honor and respect the diverse spiritual and religious beliefs of our patients. Our spiritual counselors are trained to provide care that is sensitive to and aligned with each individual's belief system.

• Assist in Finding Meaning and Peace: They help patients and their families find a sense of peace and meaning, assisting in navigating the spiritual aspects of end-of-life.

• Facilitate Rituals and Services: Whether it's prayer, meditation, readings, or rituals, our spiritual counselors can facilitate or assist in organizing these based on the patient's and family's wishes.
