Spiritual Care
Sturdy Memorial Hospital understands the importance of meeting the spiritual and religious needs of our patients, their families, and the hospital staff.
Spiritual care is accessible by contacting the Case Management office at (508) 236-7693, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. If support is needed at other times, please contact the nurse's station where the patient is located, and they will have direct numbers for clergy support.
A Roman Catholic Deacon and other local clergy are available to provide the following:
- Spiritual and emotional support
- Non-judgmental listening
- Responding to trauma, crisis, loss, or grief
- Support in observing your faith practice
- Prayer, blessing, or supportive conversations
Our Roman Catholic Deacon can contact a local priest at the request of the patient for sacrament of the sick or other needs the patient may require.
