This Spiritual Care Week we’re shining a light on the compassionate support Rowcroft offers to people of all faiths and none.
When Carole’s husband George spent his final weeks in Rowcroft’s Inpatient Unit, the couple took great comfort from their Baha’i beliefs. With the help of our Spiritual Care Specialist Katie Evans, George was able to hear his favourite prayers, even when he was no longer responsive. Katie was also there for Carole – keeping her informed and offering words of support through the hardest of times.
“It was an honour to be alongside George and Carole, helping them to draw strength from their Baha’i beliefs and traditions,” said Katie. “At Rowcroft, we want everyone to feel free to be themselves in our care, finding meaning, comfort and strength in their own way.”
“What struck me most was that the care was not just for George – it was for me too,” says Carole. “I never felt left on my own.”
