The  philosophy of parish nursing embraces four major concepts: spiritual formation, professionalism,  health and wholeness, and community.  

• The spiritual dimension is central to parish nursing practice.
• The parish nurse role reclaims the historic roots of professional nursing. 
• The parish nurse understands health to be a dynamic process that embodies the spiritual, psychological, physical, and social dimensions of the person.
• The practice of parish nursing focuses on a faith community.

The ministry is open to ALL healthcare professionals, nurses, nurse practitioners, nursing assistants, physical & occupational therapist, physicians, etc.
