A hospital stay is associated with hope for healing, but sometimes also with fears and worries. In terms of holistic treatment, the soul and mind play an essential role in the healing process.
The counselling service at UKBB accompanies parents and their children at their request during their time in hospital. It advises them on their questions, doubts and decisions. It strengthens and encourages and is open to people of all religions, denominations and world views.
The hospital chaplaincy also organises baptisms and other rituals.
Would you like pastoral support? Our hospital chaplaincy team will be happy to help you by telephone or written agreement.
