Spiritual Care
The chaplains at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett are available 24 hours a day to serve the emotional and spiritual needs of our patients, their families, and our caregivers. Our chapels are open to all, and our chaplains provide support to people of any spiritual or religious tradition including those who identify as having no particular belief system. We are here to listen, offer encouragement, and support you.
We are honored to be present with you as you navigate life changes, stress, grief, and all the other emotions and questions of meaning that arise with hospitalization. If you want someone to pray for you or need a quiet place to meditate, we provide a range of services to meet your spiritual, emotional, and social needs.
You are welcome to visit the Ascension Chapel and Wimpy Prayer Room at Colby Campus, or our chapel at Pacific Campus. Family members, friends of patients, and Providence caregivers are all welcome to reach out to us for support and comfort. We can be reached through the Hospital Operator or directly at 425-404-7025.
