About Parish Nursing Ministries UK

Parish nursing is about whole person health care through the local church ~ a way of rediscovering the essential wholeness of the Gospel as Jesus proclaimed it… body and soul. Churches are encouraged to recognise and employ specially trained nurses as part of their ministry teams to deliver holistic health care … Spiritual and physical … amongst their congregations and communities.

You're welcome to post photos of people involved in this kind of ministry.

Congregations have been promoting health and wholeness for centuries through worship, music, sharing and caring. Celtic monks have travelled around Europe in healing and prayer ministries, Christians have started hospitals and hospices, denominations have trained hospital chaplains, and churches have employed nurses as deaconesses.

Parish nurses are nurse practitioners with experience in preventive medicine and some theological training. They are staff members of the church’s ministry team, working together with the congregation to promote the holistic message of the Gospel in the local community.

A small interdenominational and multi-professional group has taken on the task of promoting parish nursing in the UK.
