If you are hospitalized
Just a reminder that if you are being admitted to the hospital and would like a visit from those whose ministry is visiting the sick, tell the admissions clerk that you are a Roman Catholic. They will then provide your name to those visiting the sick. Due to the privacy act a patient cannot be asked what religious affiliation they have, but can volunteer the information.
