FAITH CENTER AND SPIRITUAL CARE

At West Chester Hospital, we believe that every patient and guest has the right to exercise their own religious, cultural and personal values. We will respect your beliefs and assist you in addressing your spiritual needs. Our Faith Center, located on the first floor of the main lobby, is open 24 hours a day to all patients and visitors. We are also pleased to offer the pastoral care services of our clinically-trained staff, volunteers and student chaplains. Our Spiritual Care team represents the diversity of our global community and speaks multiple languages. Should you request the services or sacraments offered by local clergy, we are glad to arrange that service or sacrament for you. The Eucharist is delivered multiple times weekly for our Roman Catholic patients. Community clergy are encouraged to check in with our staff chaplains once they arrive on the hospital campus in order to brief them on infection control protocols and safety measures.
