How does a hospital clergy member typically collaborate with medical staff and patients’ families?

Hospital clergy play an important role in providing emotional and spiritual support to patients and their families. They frequently collaborate with doctors, nurses, and social workers to address the holistic needs of patients, especially in times of crisis or end-of-life care. Hospital clergy often join interdisciplinary team meetings, facilitate communication between families and healthcare providers, and offer counseling or rituals as requested. Their work environment is dynamic, requiring flexibility and sensitivity to diverse beliefs and backgrounds.

What is a hospital clergy?

Hospital clergy, also known as hospital chaplains or spiritual care providers, are professionals who offer spiritual, emotional, and religious support to patients, their families, and hospital staff. They often serve people of all faiths and backgrounds, providing comfort during times of illness, crisis, or grief. Hospital clergy may lead prayers, perform religious rituals, listen to concerns, and help patients find meaning or peace during their hospital stay. Their support can be especially valuable during end-of-life care or when patients and families face difficult decisions.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a hospital clergy, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Hospital Clergy, you need a background in theology or pastoral care, often supported by formal ordination and relevant clinical pastoral education (CPE). Familiarity with electronic health record systems and hospital protocols is helpful for integrating spiritual care into patient services. Compassion, active listening, and cultural sensitivity are crucial soft skills for providing emotional and spiritual support to patients and families. These abilities ensure that holistic care is delivered, fostering comfort and resilience during challenging health care experiences.

Job description

CLERGY CARE  —  ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA, PA
Healthcare Advocate for Catholic Clergy
RN or LPN preferred — active license not required
Part-Time to Full-Time  |  Philadelphia, PA  |  Active License NOT Required  |  Mission-DrivenAre you a nurse who is tired of the bedside — but not tired of caring? If you have given years to shift work, hospital floors, and high-volume patient loads and are looking for something slower, more personal, and deeply meaningful — this is that role. 
THE MISSION
Caring for those who care for others
Priests, deacons, and religious have spent their lives in service to others. Now it is their turn to be cared for — and you will be the one to do it. As a Healthcare Advocate with Clergy Care, you will serve as a trusted companion and guide for the clergy of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, helping them navigate a healthcare system that can be overwhelming, confusing, and impersonal.
This is not a bedside role. There are no night shifts, no patient ratios, no charting marathons. What there is: real relationships, genuine purpose, and the chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people who have dedicated themselves to God and community.
Our mission is simple: Right Care. Right Place. Right Time.
 “If you have ever wished you could just sit with a patient longer, follow up after discharge, or actually know the person behind the chart — this role gives you that. Every day.” 
THE LICENSE QUESTIONYour active license is NOT required. RNs and LPNs with lapsed or inactive licenses are warmly encouraged to apply. CNAs and Medical Assistants with 3+ years of healthcare experience are also welcome. 
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Your day-to-day
You will be the single, dedicated point of contact for clergy members in your care. You will know their names, their history, their preferences — and they will know yours. Your work spans four core areas:
RELATIONSHIP BUILDING & OUTREACH
  • Build trusted, personal relationships with clergy through regular outreach and on-site visits
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for healthcare navigation, benefits questions, and wellness needs
  • Proactively identify unmet needs and connect members with services before problems escalate
  • Provide health education and preventive wellness resources tailored to each member

CARE COORDINATION & NAVIGATION
  • Coordinate medical, dental, and specialist appointments for seamless care experiences
  • Assist members in navigating provider networks, benefits, and pre-authorization processes
  • Connect members with community resources including transportation, home care, and support services
  • Coordinate third-party services such as DME, home health, and specialty providers

ADVOCACY & HOSPITAL SUPPORT
  • Conduct on-site hospital visits and serve as a personal advocate during hospitalizations
  • Provide post-discharge follow-up and care coordination to prevent readmissions
  • Visit members in assisted living facilities, skilled nursing facilities, and retirement homes
  • Conduct home safety assessments and arrange modifications or meal services when needed
  • Assist with remote monitoring tools including glucometers, blood pressure cuffs, and alert systems

TEAM COLLABORATION
  • Collaborate closely with our broader support team: pharmacists, nutritionists, and social workers
  • Partner with Archdiocesan leadership and affiliated ministries to ensure coordinated, comprehensive care
  • Maintain accurate, timely documentation in accordance with HIPAA and PHI guidelines
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
The right person for this role
You do not need to be currently licensed. You do need to be the kind of person who genuinely loves people, listens well, and finds deep satisfaction in being the one someone can count on.
  • RN or LPN background strongly preferred (active license not required)
  • Exceptional communication and listening skills with ability to offer calm, compassionate support
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working independently
  • Humble, service-oriented, and genuinely motivated by helping others
  • Comfortable with light technology including Microsoft Office and remote monitoring tools
  • Able to travel locally to member locations, facilities, and events
  • A connection to or respect for the Catholic faith and its communities is a meaningful plus
