Parish Nursing Program
If there is
ant interest in the 2008 training classes it is recommended that
preparations begin immediately in order to orient the parish or
church to the parish nurse role and to develop a health and wellness committee
to support the ministry. The OSF Parish Nurse Program will
provide information and on-site support for accomplishing
these tasks. Contact the Manager of the Parish Nurse Program for
assistance.
