The Chaplaincy Teams.

BRHC is supported by...

Assistant Chaplains

Assistant Chaplains are volunteers trained in providing pastoral support in healthcare and aged care settings. They visit their venues regularly to care for patients, residents, their families and staff.

Worship Teams/Chapel

Worship Teams and Chapel Team members provide church services developed with patients and aged care residents in mind.  These are presented face-to-face or streamed over YouTube.
