Parish Nurse

The Parish Nurse Ministry at Luther Seminary is a holistic approach to health care, bringing together aspects of faith and health through education, counseling and assisting members of the seminary community with health care choices.

One facet is the Healthy Leaders Initiative, which helps students become aware of their lifestyle and its impact on their well being. It's purpose is to help the student identify positive behaviors which will enable them be good stewards of their God given gifts and model healthy lifestyles for those they will serve in the parish and community.

The Parish Nurse program is a partnership with Lyngblomsten Corporation.
