Residents are selected from among applicants who have had adequate training and experience to enable them to provide spiritual care to patients, families and staff in the System. Residents are trained for advanced professional work in spiritual care. The resident is paid a stipend which enables this year of clinical education. They are thus employees who serve as chaplains providing care for patients, families and staff.
