In the institution-based model, the nurse serves a health system with assignment to particular congregational settings, acting as a liaison between the health system and the congregation and helping plan and coordinate care, particularly at times of transition. In the parish nursing model, the nurse contributes to the health and wholeness of people in the context of a faith community, is part of the ministry staff of the congregation, and serves the illness needs of individual people, families, and the entire faith community. In the congregation-based model, the nurse serves a particular faith community by virtue of a contract or job description; this model supports the concept of a faith community nurse who can be paid or serve as a volunteer. Spiritual care is care of the human spirit that may include dealing with the meaning of health, illness or loss, and relationships with God and others, and that which has the goal of peace.
