Nursing started in the mid-1980’s through the efforts of the Dr. Granger
Westberg in Chicago. He noted that people in his congregation experienced a
faster rate of recovery from hospitalization and illness when the Physician,
nurses, social workers and clergy worked together to care for a patient’s body,
mind and soul. He observed that nurses, based on their education and compassion
toward the suffering and sick, stood as the link between the health care system
and local congregation. Rev. Westberg urged area hospitals to launch a program
to provide “Parish Nurses” who would reach out into the community to build
bridges of healing and hope. Parish Nursing at Capitol Hill Christian will focus on prevention, spirituality, and emotional health. A Parish nurse does not replace the Public Health Nurse, the Hospice Nurse, your Physician or any other health care provider that currently provides you care. Some
of the responsibilities might include: ·
Blood pressure checks ·
Education about medications ·
Home visits
·
Health education programs ·
Emotional and spiritual support activities Sheryl will have a table in the community area before church. Stop
and get your blood pressure checked, visit about any concerns, make an
appointment, or just chat. She will be available to talk to you one Sunday a
month to start with and/or by appointment. You may leave a message in the
office. A
nurse never considers herself finished—she is learning her entire life. Sheryl
would enjoy learning from you and with you. There
are many challenges ahead so walking side by side helps meet them. | DMARC Food Pantry dmarcunited.org/food/most-needed-items/ January 23 Collection on the fourth
