Spiritual Care Minor

You might wonder: “Why would I choose a faith-based college for my heath care degree?” At Kettering College, we offer every student a minor in Spiritual Care which empowers you to offer compassionate care to your patients and survive the stressors of healthcare.

The minor in spiritual care is a distinctive educational experience which every student at Kettering College participates in and will likely earn within their chosen program.

“The sonography program has benefited greatly from the Student Assistance Fund. Our students face the same issues as all people in our community. Divorce, homelessness, and family tragedies have all occurred. If it were not for the student assistance fund helping students with immediate needs, I believe many would have been forced to drop out. These are students who are now successful health professionals. I can’t thank you enough!”
