Chaplaincy at Mountbatten Hospice

The role of Mountbatten Isle of Wight, the island’s community and hospice end-of-life and palliative care provider, is to promote and provide good care and support for people living with, affected by or curious about death, dying and bereavement. And its chaplaincy is integral to that vision.

The Rev Vickie Morgan is the chaplain at Mountbatten, which has 16 in-patient beds, as well as a shop, café, chapel, art room, gym and its award-winning garden. She offers spiritual care as well as training for other staff in how to do so. They hold regular memorial services in their chapel, including music, readings and candles.

Chaplaincy at Rowans Hospice

Caring for someone at the Hospice means more than just looking after their physical wellbeing. Spiritual care is important too. Spiritual care is integral to the way in which staff and volunteers interact with our patients and carers, regardless of faith or belief.

Sometimes questions and doubts arise and it can be helpful to share and explore these with someone.

The chaplaincy service gives people the chance to talk through issues and to pray for anyone who would like to receive prayer.
