What does a Hospice Chaplain Do?

What does a Hospice Chaplain really do all day? In this behind-the-scenes video, I take you inside Part 1 of my daily rhythm as a spiritual care provider in hospice care.

From patient visits to grief support and coordinating with nurses, social workers, and caregivers, being a hospice chaplain means showing up for people at the end of life with compassion, cultural sensitivity, and clinical skill. If you’ve ever wondered what spiritual care looks like outside of a church or pulpit, this is it.

📌 Whether you're discerning a call to chaplaincy, preparing for CPE (Clinical Pastoral Education), or just curious about what it's like to provide end-of-life care, this video breaks it down.

✅ In this video, you'll learn:

What a hospice chaplain does daily

The emotional and spiritual needs of patients at end-of-life

How chaplains support families and interdisciplinary teams

What it means to offer non-judgmental presence and spiritual care (not just prayer!)

Real-life insights from a working chaplain in the field

🕊️ This is Part 1 of a multi-part series giving an honest look into the sacred, unpredictable, and often misunderstood work of hospice chaplaincy.
