Cancer Treatment Centers of America Embraces Patients’ Christian Faith by Providing Pastoral Care Team Option

Cancer Treatment Centers of America Embraces Patients’ Christian Faith by Providing Pastoral Care Team OptionCancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA) provides state-of-the-art, integrative cancer care that combines advanced technology with a personalized approach.

At CTCA, patients receive continuous care from a dedicated team, including oncologists, surgeons, radiologists and integrative care clinicians, as well as a committed pastoral care team who embrace and support their patients’ Christian faith.

Each CTCA hospital has a dedicated pastoral care team that is united in the purpose of encouraging patients in their faith and helping them find strength and hope in God. A pastor is available to participate in a patient’s care along with the members of the clinical and supportive care team. Additionally, the pastoral care team offers assistance and support to family members, as well as patients. Pastors also provide worship services, Bible studies, and times of prayer.

“God is love and His loving presence is experienced by our patients within the deep and warm personal relationships with their physicians, chaplains, and many others,” said Rev. Michael Barry, Director of Pastoral Care with CTCA at Eastern Regional Medical Center. “The relationships we have with our patients begin with the first step through our doors, continue while away at home, and can be described as nothing other than holy. CTCA is a special place for special people at a special time in their life.”
