As a member of our program, we will bring health screenings and presentations to your congregation while you can offer the same screenings to the surrounding community. We’ll work with you to assess your congregation’s health needs and assist you in developing your program.
A Faith Community Nurse is a Registered Professional Nurse that acts as a health educator, health counselor/advisor/advocate and coordinator. He or she does not provide hands-on care, but will listen to concerns and refer the individual to healthcare providers and resources. This Faith Community Nurse should be a member of your congregation. Faith Community Nurse training information will be provided.
Cannot identify an RN within the congregation? The Congregational Health Promoter Training offers those, within the congregation and interested in health promotion, an opportunity to learn about health ministry, how to spot health concerns, and recommend appropriate referral sites. Call for more information.
