Parish Nursing/Faith Community Nursing

A parish/faith community nurse is a licensed registered nurse who ministers to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of a congregation.

Make a difference within a faith community

Parish/faith community nursing is an opportunity to serve God in a faith-based setting by caring for members and neighbors. Parish/Faith community nurses focus on the promotion of health within the context of the beliefs, values, and practices of a particular congregation.

The mission and ministry is to meet the unique needs of the members and friends in the church served. In 1997, The American Nurses鈥 Association recognized parish nursing as a specialty practice. In 2005, the name "parish nurse" was changed to faith "community nurse" so the focus of practice was more clearly identified and a greater variety of denominations could feel included in the title.
