Pastoral and Spiritual Care:
Clergy and Chaplain Teams
At Hasbro Children's Hospital, we have chaplaincy teams and clergy
to make sure the spiritual and religious needs of our patients and
their families are met. The pastoral care team at Hasbro Children's
Hospital is affiliated with Interfaith
Healthcare Ministries.
- A chapel for people of all
religious beliefs is located on the upper lobby level of Hasbro
Children's Hospital. Another is located near the lobby of the
Rhode Island Hospital Main Building. The chapel is always open
for meditation and prayer. If you would like privacy, feel free
to close the door to the chapel. Please leave the door open when
you leave.
- Our Catholic chaplaincy team
is funded by the Diocese
of Providence. The team provides 24-hour presence for our
Catholic patients, their families and staff. Holy Communion is
available to patients during their hospital stay. Eucharistic
ministers assist in making Communion available daily and/or on
Sundays. To request Communion, please call 401-444-4627.
Also, our team offers the sacrament of anointing at any time.
To request anointing, please call 401-444-4627, or contact
our hospital switchboard at 401-444-5616. The switchboard
is able to reach a member of the Catholic chaplaincy team 24 hours
a day. A Catholic mass is celebrated in the Hasbro Children's
Hospital chapel at 10:30 a.m. on Sundays and at 12 p.m. on holy
days of obligation.
- Our Protestant chaplaincy team
is a volunteer team of chaplains that has been endorsed by the
Rhode Island State Council of Churches. It consists of local ministers
trained in hospital chaplaincy. To request a visit, call the hospital
