Illness & Hospice

Bikkur Holim – Care for the Sick

Bikkur Holim – care for the sick and aged – is a primary value in the Jewish tradition.  At HEA we strive to be a caring and supportive community that embodies God’s compassion.  Our clergy and lay volunteers are available to visit you or a loved one in the hospital.  We also have a cadre of volunteers who call and visit homebound members of our community. 

Our rabbis are experienced in pastoral care and issues around illness.  They are available to offer support to you and your family in times of illness and can advise you in ethical decisions at the end of life. 

If you or someone you love is ill and would like a call or visit, please contact the synagogue at (303)758-9400.  If you have an urgent need and are calling outside of regular office hours, please call the synagogue’s emergency line: (303)956-5163.
