Faith Nurse Ministry
BSBHS
coordinates health services and health education in
our five senior buildings, area senior centers and
faith communities thru the joint services of the Bon
Secours Faith Nurse Ministry recognizing that
programs do not operate in isolation, but rather
demonstrate a distinctly successful model of health
care and community integration, using technology and
partnership as the tools to move beyond traditional
and limiting practices in the prevention and
treatment of chronic disease.
Statement of Mission
The Faith Community Nurse is to be a vehicle of
Christ’s healing love and an enabler for persons in
cooperation with the ministers and people of the
faith communities of West Baltimore. This ministry
serves the sick, suffering, poor and dying in their
homes and faith communities by facilitating and
monitoring the delivery of physical and spiritual
care, emotional support, health care counseling and
referral, health education and screening services.
