Annotation | Faith Community Nursing is based on principles of communion, stewardship, service and transformation to promote the health of the community. Faith Community Nurses (FCNs) provide education, advocacy, counselling and assistance with care management to the faith community and beyond. Their work is complimented and supplemented by health ministry volunteers, who use their knowledge and skills to build the social capital of the community. (KJ/RH). |
