Chaplain 7 24 13 Objective and Qualifications As Chaplain, I worked well with all members of the inter-disciplinary team that focused on the spiritual, physical, mental and emotional needs, not only patients, but families, caregivers and staff, including volunteers. As senior chaplain I provided pastoral care interventions, including pastoral counseling, which was determined by spiritual assessment, the specific setting and sensitivity to a variety of values, beliefs and religious orientations. I believe as in all worthwhile endeavors to serve as chaplain I must seek excellence in pastoral care, which requires authentic demeanor, compassion and skill in dealing with the spiritual dynamics of illness, loss and death. Not only for the patients and families but also for the staff, and I believe that includes upper management. As the Apostle says “ To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means encourage and minister to some. 1 Cor. 9:22
