In many hospitals and NHS Trusts the chaplaincy operates in an ecumenical and multi-faith context. Hospital Chaplains are encouraged to work closely with the chaplains of other denominations and representatives of faith communities. The Church of England chaplain may be called to work to develop a multi-faith approach within the hospital. Advice about inter-faith matters can be obtained from the Area Bishop's Inter-faith Adviser.
