TIPS: Help us successfully minister to patientsGeneral: Come on time Make first-timers feel welcome Invite a friend Especially if they play an

instrument.

When We are Singing: Smile Choose songs appropriate for the

situation Help the guitarists by holding

words. Always follow in song booklets in

case everyone forgets the next verse.

Always use the index to select easily played songs.

Tell the guitarists what key the song that you selected is.

Interacting with the Patients: Don’t wait for others to initiate interaction

(e.g. asking favorite song, praying). Turn down the TV volume When patients is asked for a favorite, be

prepared to suggest one.

Ministering to Patients: Be willing to enter a room Judge if the room is conducive to visiting

(patient sleeping or avoiding eye contact?)

Help hand out Steps to Christ If there are enough singers, briefly stay

behind & talk with a patient. If a patient begins to cry, touch them

sympathetically on the shoulder or hand.

While on the Unit: Respect the work environment. Wash your hands if you recently touched

a patient.
