Care visits are not a performance or a replacement for professional help. This free nine-page guide helps deacons and care teams offer thoughtful presence, prayer, appropriate follow-up, and wise referrals in a small-church context.
Inside the guide
- Preparation, listening, prayer, and follow-up prompts
- Care boundaries, confidentiality, documentation, and referral guidance
- Hospital, home, crisis, and grief conversation reminders
- A sustainable visitation rhythm for a small team
This is educational ministry material, not medical, mental-health, legal, safeguarding, counseling, or emergency advice. Follow church policy and involve qualified local professionals when needed.
