Faith Community
Nursing Courses
Shenandoah University offers a certification program for both Faith
Community Nursing and for Coordinators of Faith Community Nursing.
Shenandoah University’s Faith Community Nursing program continues
to shape nurses for congregational ministry. Through a grant from
the United Methodist Global AIDS Fund, SU is also planning to carry
Faith Community Nursing training to Africa University in Zimbabwe.
Additionally, Wesley Theological Seminary has asked SU to bring graduate-level
parish nurse training to Wesley’s Equipping Lay Ministries certificate
program.
The International Parish Nurse (Faith Community Nurse) Resource Center
says:
A parish nurse focuses on the whole person to emphasize wellness,
disease prevention and health promotion, including healthy spirituality.
Care is based on the belief that health is growth toward well being
and emphasizes the interrelationship of body, mind and spirit. Health
is related to everything a person does, thinks, and feels and is not
merely the absence of disease.
