What is an ACPE chaplain?

ACPE chaplains are spiritual care professionals who have completed clinical pastoral education (CPE) accredited by the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education (ACPE). They provide emotional and spiritual support to individuals in hospitals, hospices, and other healthcare settings, addressing the needs of patients, families, and staff from all faith traditions or none. ACPE chaplains are trained to offer compassionate, nonjudgmental care during times of crisis, illness, and grief, and often play a key role in interdisciplinary healthcare teams.

How does an ACPE chaplain typically collaborate with interdisciplinary healthcare teams?

As an ACPE Chaplain, you will work closely with doctors, nurses, social workers, and other healthcare professionals to provide holistic care to patients and their families. Regular interdisciplinary meetings and consultations are common, where you may be asked to contribute insights on spiritual assessment or patient support needs. Building strong communication and rapport with staff helps integrate spiritual care into treatment plans and ensures that the emotional and spiritual well-being of patients is addressed alongside their medical needs.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an ACPE chaplain, and why are they important?

To thrive as an ACPE Chaplain, you need theological education, completion of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) units, and board certification from recognized chaplaincy organizations. Familiarity with electronic medical records, pastoral care documentation systems, and spiritual assessment tools is typically required. Exceptional interpersonal skills, cultural sensitivity, and emotional resilience are crucial soft skills for supporting individuals in crisis and collaborating with healthcare teams. These competencies ensure effective spiritual care, ethical practice, and integration within multidisciplinary healthcare settings.

Overview
Provide Peace. Offer Support. Honor Lives.
We believe every patient deserves dignity, peace, and connection-no matter where they are on life's journey. Our Hospice Chaplains offer more than prayers and presence; they bring comfort, guidance, and meaning when it's needed most.
Full-time Field Chaplain (Serving Randolph County)!
We're looking for a compassionate Hospice Chaplain to provide non-denominational spiritual and emotional support to patients and families facing end-of-life care. As a valued member of our interdisciplinary team, you'll help ensure that no one walks this path alone.

  • Serve as an integral member of the interdisciplinary team, participating in patient care conferences and collaborating with nurses, social workers, aides, and medical staff.
  • Assess spiritual needs of patients and families and develop individualized spiritual care plans.
  • Conduct visits, prayers, blessings, and rituals as appropriate and requested by the patient or family.
  • Assist families during times of grief, loss, or transition, and provide bereavement support and counseling.
  • Build relationships with local faith leaders and community resources to support patients' and families' unique spiritual needs.
  • Maintain timely and accurate documentation of spiritual assessments, interventions, and outcomes.

  • Competitive Pay
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Career Advancement Opportunities
