Congregational Health Promotion at CMC-NorthEast

The Congregational Health Promoter (CHP) is generally a lay person trained in wholistic healthcare principles and avenues for coordination of a health ministry in their place of worship.  The CHP attends approximately 12 hours of training about how to start a health ministry in his or her congregation.  This person may be an additional resource to an existing Parish Nurse program or may establish a CHP model in their church, which involves a somewhat different scope of responsibility than a Parish Nurse model. 

If you are interested in learning more about health ministry with a congregational health promoter, please feel free to contact Carol Hovey via email or by phone at 704-403-4763.
