Spiritual Care

chapelUF Health Flagler Hospital believes in the treatment of the whole person - body, mind, and spirit - recognizing that when a physical health issue occurs, people are often affected spiritually as much as they are physically. For many, religious faith is a vital force in their life – influencing the wellness of the whole person. With that in mind, we are pleased to provide pastoral care for our patients, friends, family, and staff.

We offer spiritual support and care to all people during medical crises. If you require specific spiritual services, our team of over twenty-five Chaplains who generously volunteer their time for the patients, family members and staff of UF Health Flagler Hospital will make every attempt to accommodate.
