Spiritual Services

Seasons Hospice provides a variety of programs for Spiritual Care, which can include the following:
Person-to-person support: a personal visit may be requested from our Spiritual Care Team. We are available for personal contact, counseling, companionship, or conversation.

Family concerns: relationships sometimes become strained in stressful life-situations. We will work in a sensitive and caring matter with each person and each situation.

Direct cooperation with local clergy: our Spiritual Care programs are not intended to replace your relationship with your local community of faith. We are willing and eager to work in close partnership with your clergy and provide referrals for local religious or spiritual groups.

Educational support groups: we provide a safe and supportive place for people to explore questions of meaning and purpose with each other, to learn from each other about ways to cope and heal, to learn various “spiritual disciplines,” and to form new friendships.

Written resources: we have a library of materials available that can help you understand and follow your spiritual journey.
