<strong>Being</strong> <strong>For</strong> <strong>Others</strong>People have stories to tell.This is one way we create meaning, make sense of life and get in touch with our inner world.The Pastoral <strong>Care</strong> and Bereavement Team enables patients and families to be heard,to voice their thoughts and express their feelings.This engagement happens through listening, through sharing and holding of the story.<strong>Being</strong> for others is a gentle presence allowing people to be acknowledged and not alone in theirjourney. As we travel together we can experience healing and meaning and hope.Participating in rituals is a powerful way that people connect to others and their inner world.At CHCB the “Ceremony of Remembrance” and “Remembering Lives”ritualise this part of our human journey.<strong>Calvary</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Bethlehem</strong> 2009 – 10 Annual Report31
