Volunteer parish nurse Joanie Friend of the Bradley Hills Presbyterian Church takes the blood pressure of elderly patient Hazel Sears at Sears' home in Bethesda, Maryland, September 21, 2007. Parish nursing, which is also called faith community and congregational nursing, has been around since the mid-1980s but it has grown recently to plug some of the health care gaps in a nation where 47 million people lack insurance. Experts estimate between 7,000 and 11,000 churches and a handful of synagogues have nurses, weaving a safety net for a health care system that doesn't do a particularly good job in managing chronic disease, teaching preventive health, or supporting the home-bound elderly or the dying.
