UT Medical Center Spotlight - Pastoral Care

While our clinical teams focus on physical healing, our Pastoral Care team ensures that patients, families and team members receive the emotional and spiritual support they need during life’s most challenging moments.

Our Pastoral Care team provides 24/7 support to everyone who walks these halls—from patients and families to the thousands of team members providing care to our community. This team prides itself on maintaining a response time of five minutes or less when called to serve.

At its core, our Pastoral Care team provides spiritual and emotional support for patients and their families—helping them find meaning and strength in moments of trauma, grief or uncertainty. In addition, Pastoral Care also provides care to team members, offering support through personal and professional challenges. The team honors all faith traditions but also provides emotional support for those who do not identify with any religion.
