PNMUK
Training
Our training is designed to equip registered nurses to serve confidently at the intersection of faith and health. With a strong theological foundation, practical tools, and ongoing supervision, we prepare nurses for a deeply impactful role in their communities. At PNMUK, training is more than a course—it’s the beginning of a supported journey.
Equipping
At Parish Nursing Ministries UK (PNMUK), we believe that when parish nurses are well-trained and well-supported, communities flourish. That’s why we offer comprehensive training and professional development designed specifically for the unique calling of parish nursing.
Whether you’re exploring Parish Nursing for the first time or looking to grow in your role, PNMUK is here to walk with you every step of the way.
What we offer
PNMUK offers specialised training and ongoing professional development for registered nurses exploring or serving in parish nursing roles. Our foundational course equips nurses to integrate spiritual care with clinical practice in a church and community context. We also provide regular opportunities for learning, connection, and support through retreats, webinars, and a national network of parish nurses.

Learning doesn’t stop after the course. We’re committed to supporting parish nurses throughout their journey. PNMUK offers:
