Services: St. Anthony Hospital

Our professionally trained chaplains are available to provide emotional and spiritual support and honor what matters most to you through compassionate listening, crisis intervention, grief and bereavement resources, and patient advocacy. Chaplains provide respectful spiritual and emotional care to people of all faiths, beliefs, and values. Chaplains are available daily from 7:30 a.m to 4 p.m. 

To request a chaplain visit, speak with the bedside nurse or call the Spiritual Care office 253-530-2142.

The chapel is located on Level 1, just off the hospital’s main lobby. This space is set aside for quiet reflection and prayer for patients, visitors and staff of all faiths. It is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Hospitals have used natural landscaping, gardens and fresh air as components of healing for centuries. Located outside the dining area, the Healing Garden at St. Anthony Hospital continues with this tradition, offering patients, visitors and staff a natural and beautiful setting for quiet conversation, contemplation, healing and prayer.

The Bereavement Support Program has been established to assist those family members who have lost a loved one while they were a patient at our Virginia Mason Franciscan Health hospitals. Learn more about the program and find support group offerings.

Patient and family Web pages are Internet based tools that allow patients or their families to build web pages that keep family and friends updated on developments in the patient's condition and treatment.

The web pages are easy to access and navigate. They can display photos and information, and allow visitors who have been invited to leave messages for the patient.
