Healthcare Advocate for Catholic Clergy
About The Position
Caring for those who care for others Priests, deacons, and religious have spent their lives in service to others. Now it is their turn to be cared for — and you will be the one to do it. As a Healthcare Advocate with Clergy Care, you will serve as a trusted companion and guide for the clergy of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, helping them navigate a healthcare system that can be overwhelming, confusing, and impersonal. This is not a bedside role. There are no night shifts, no patient ratios, no charting marathons. What there is: real relationships, genuine purpose, and the chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people who have dedicated themselves to God and community. Our mission is simple: Right Care. Right Place. Right Time. “If you have ever wished you could just sit with a patient longer, follow up after discharge, or actually know the person behind the chart — this role gives you that. Every day.”
