Calvary Health Care Riverina

Pastoral Care

Our Pastoral care staff are committed to supporting our patients and their families. We understand that admission to hospital can be a time when you might feel the need to talk to someone whose only concern is to listen to you and to help you work your way through your feelings.

This is done with an awareness of God's presence and love for each one of us. The Pastoral care staff respect each person's beliefs and their aim is to provide support, no matter your religion. They will liaise with a minister of your denomination at your request and ensure that you have the support of the Sacraments, as you wish.

Patients and visitors of all denominations are welcome to visit the Mary Potter Chapel situated on the second floor of the St Anne's Wing for meditation or prayer. Mass is celebrated daily at 9.00 am.

Holy Communion for Catholics is distributed daily. Communion is available for those of other denominations. Please see the Pastoral care staff or ask a member of the nursing staff.

The Chapel of the Maternal Heart of Mary is located adjacent to the general Hospital and patients are welcome to come to the celebrations of Mass. Mass times are as follows:

• Monday - Friday 8 a.m.
• Saturday 9.30 am.

If you require Chaplaincy services, please call reception by dialing 9.
