Parish NursingThe Parish Nurse (PN) ministry at St. Marcus Lutheran Church and School is a wellness based practice. Each of the registered nurses (RN) who participates in this volunteer ministry at St. Marcus is currently licensed in the state of Wisconsin. It is the underlying goal of parish nursing that each member of the congregation and each student in the school be as healthy as possible so that he/she can serve the Lord to the fullest. Here at St. Marcus we nurses do nothing invasive– in other words, no shots. Rather, we adhere to the basic philosophy of parish nursing in the following four roles: health education, health counseling, community liaison and mobilizer of volunteers. The nurse’s faiths serves as the fulcrum for each role. This health ministry will serve as a support to your personal/private health care. Upon pastoral or personal request, the nurse can make a home health visit. Specific examples of how this ministry helps people to “stay well” can be found in the PN brochure. Your parish nurses can be reached by contacting the church office at 414-562-3369. Linda Golembiewski serves as your PN contact person.
