It’s important to respect the unique spiritual and cultural orientation of each patient and family member. We want to help you and your family receive the type of spiritual and emotional support you feel is needed during your hospitalization. Our pastoral staff, board certified chaplain, students-in-training, and trained volunteers, working from a multi-faith approach, are available to meet with you and/or help you find the support you desire.

You can contact our spiritual care staff directly by calling 904.627.2470 or by asking your nurse. An On-Call Chaplain is available 24 hours daily for emergency Spiritual Care needs and can be reached by contacting your nurse.

The Chaplain's office is located on the second floor of the hospital. The Chapel, located on the ground floor across from the Surgical Department, is available 24 hours a day for people of all faiths and backgrounds.

You can find additional information regarding Spiritual Care within Baptist Health here.

For after-hour emergencies request your nurse or the hospital operator to contact the Chaplain on-call.
