Pastoral - Spiritual Care

Are you a member of the clergy who wishes to share your faith with residents? We have opportunities for clergy within established religions to schedule religious services on-site in our Chapels. We also have opportunities for non-ordained members of any faith community to attend our sites to provide support to residents who request their support.
ROLE DESCRIPTION and RESPONSIBILITIES
