  • Provide spiritual support during actively dying and end-of-life transitions.
  • Offer grief support and participate in bereavement services as appropriate.
  • Assist patients and families with advance care planning, legacy work, life review, forgiveness, reconciliation, and meaning-centered conversations.
  • Respond to urgent spiritual care needs during evenings, weekends, or holidays as assigned.
  • Educate staff regarding spiritual issues impacting patient care.
  • Maintain confidentiality and comply with HIPAA requirements.
  • Participate in agency orientation, continuing education, quality improvement activities, and mandatory in-service training.
