About this service
Spiritual support for patients and families
Spiritual counseling is an integral part of hospice care. Its aim is to support patients and their families from a spiritual and emotional perspective, always respecting their beliefs, values, and traditions.
Spiritual counselors are trained to offer guidance and support during this process, helping the patient find peace, reflection, and acceptance in the face of their situation. Through conversation, accompaniment, and active listening, the aim is to strengthen the patient's emotional and spiritual well-being.
This service can also help resolve outstanding personal or emotional issues, facilitate important conversations between family members, and provide support during times of transition.
In addition, the spiritual advisor can coordinate religious practices or sacraments in accordance with the patient's faith, ensuring that their spiritual wishes are respected and properly supported during their stay in the hospice program.

Care process
How is spiritual support provided?
The spiritual advisor accompanies the patient and their family through visits, conversations, and spiritual guidance tailored to their beliefs and personal needs. Through a close and respectful presence, they provide a supportive space where concerns can be expressed, reflections on the process can be shared, and comfort and peace can be found during this time.
Family support
Spiritual support also for the family
The illness of a loved one can generate many emotions and questions within the family. A spiritual advisor provides a safe space where family members can express their feelings, reflect on the situation, and find spiritual guidance.
This support helps the family to face the process with greater serenity, strengthen their bonds, and find comfort during difficult times.
In addition, spiritual support can continue after the patient's death, offering guidance during the grieving process and helping family members through this stage with support and understanding.
