Parish Nursing Ministries UK is a national Christian Charity that exists to grow the ministry of Parish Nursing throughout the UK.  The Charity helps churches to appoint and train a registered nurse, who in turn supports individuals and groups by providing whole person health care.

Parish Nurses are motivated by their faith but accept and respect other people’s choices.  They work with people of all faiths and none, promoting the health and wellbeing of people of all ages and backgrounds.  They provide health education, preventative healthcare to people with short or long-term health problems and support older people in the home who may be at risk of isolation or near the end of life.  All are offered prayer and spiritual care if desired.

Parish Nurses can act as a voice of reassurance to those who need care as well as their informal caregivers.  The care provided complements the services provided by the NHS and other statutory providers.  If you are a nurse seeking to combine your vocation and faith or a church wishing to engage in health related social action and would like more information please email our enquiries service or call us at 01733 233546.
