Who We Are
Chaplain Services and Education at Duke University Hospital and its affiliated clinics is dedicated to providing exceptional spiritual care and support to patients, families, students, and staff. Our team—comprising of Senior Clinical Administrative Chaplains, Certified Educators, and CPE Students at all levels—works collaboratively to offer compassionate, holistic, and professional care.
Patient Care
Our chaplains are available day or night to offer spiritual and emotional support to people of all faiths and belief systems. This includes assistance for anyone in need of prayer or spiritual counsel. You may make a request for a religious ritual, if you feel lonely, if you're grieving a loss, or for help celebrating a religious or spiritual occasion. Our team is a resource for you.
