Homebound or Hospitalized

Homebound

If you are homebound and wish to receive Holy Communion or wish to be anointed, please contact the parish office.

Hospitalized

If you are in the hospital or know someone who is in the hospital, hospice or nursing home who might want to have a priest, pastoral minister or an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion come to visit, please contact the parish office.

Federal guidelines (HIPAA) are intended to protect the privacy of patients in the hospital. This means that the hospital will not give out any information about its patients. The Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are no longer able to get a printout of the Catholic patients in the hospital. The only way we can know that someone is in the hospital and wants a priest, pastoral minister or an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion to visit is if you communicate this directly to us.

Anointing Prior to Hospitalization

If you are scheduled for surgery or know you will be going into the hospital, contact the parish office and ask to be anointed before you go into the hospital.
