1 DIACONATE PROGRAM CANDIDATE PASTORAL CARE GUIDE Matthew 25: Then the King will say to those on His right hand, Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me. The diaconate candidate is required to complete ten (10) pastoral care visits with the guidance of his assigned clergy mentor. It is recommended that the candidate and clergy mentor meet prior to any visitation to discuss the initial and ongoing expectations of the candidate during the visits. If the clergy mentor feels that there is no conflict with the person being visited, he will ask the candidate to accompany him for a pastoral visit, initially as an observer. It is recommended the candidate initially accompany the clergy mentor and observe the interaction between the patient/shut- in/prisoner and priest. When both clergy mentor and candidate feel the candidate can begin contributing during the visit, the candidate can then interact with the person being visited. Upon review with the clergy mentor a candidate can offer assistance during the administration of the Holy Eucharist, i.e. holding the communion cloth and properly returning Holy items to the carrying case. If instructed by the clergy mentor the candidate can read a prayer, apolotikion of Feast day or Saint, or parts of the Service of Paraklesis. Some candidates will most likely know the person being visited and there will be instances when the patient is very ill and may not be able to verbally communicate. Even when patients are said to be in a coma or vegetative state they have the ability to hear. Always remain professional and be careful of what you say. When visiting the ill, it is important to remember, if family is present, they also may be in need of pastoral care. In all visits we are called by our Lord to be Present. It is often better to remain silent then to try to say something profound. People are looking for comfort, hope, and to be shown love in their time of need. Each patient has their own needs and may be in different places emotionally. It is important to pray prior to and after visits. Hospital/Nursing Home : You should always check in with the nurse that is caring for the patient. This can help guide your pastoral care. Staff may share if the patient has been feeling depressed, or has been in a lot of pain, and or having discomfort. It is also important when visiting patients suffering from dementia or Alzheimer s. These patients are generally in a locked part of the facility to ensure they stay accounted for. The staff is trained to maintain a high level of security. Checking in when you arrive may save you much miscommunication later.
2 There also may be precautions you may need to take if there are communicable diseases that are present. You may be required to wear a mask, gown, or gloves. If you are visiting multiple patients in the same hospital it is recommended to use hand disinfectant when going from one room to another, to prevent the spread of infection/disease from one patient to another. Shut-ins: They may need to be brought non- perishable foods or referred to a social service such as meals on wheels. Some shut- ins may not be taking care of themselves, so there maybe medical issues that have to be addressed. If there is no family, some social services may have to be coordinated. Communicate with your clergy mentor. Prisons: Depending on the level of security, the visit may have to be supervised by a corrections officer. Conversations may be recorded by the prison. Follow the instruction of the corrections officers at all times. Do not give out any of your personal information to other prisoners, i.e. home address, , or phone numbers. Make sure prisoner has an Orthodox Bible.
