Parish of Dublin Native
Is Six Story Hospitai
By RICHARD K. TAYLOR
in Kitchener -Waterloo Record
Rev. H. F. Feeney, a pleasant,
gray-haired member of the Con-
gregation of the Resurrection,
has a parish with a difference
—the six -floor, St. Mary's Hos-
pital.
As chaplain of the Roman
Catholic general hospital for
the past year, Father Feeney
has adjusted to the strange
world of the sick–. -with its sud-
den emergencies, antiseptic od.
ors, whispered conferences and
round-the-clock activities.
It is a world far different
from the classroom or the regu-
lar parish, with which Father
Feeney, a teacher for many
years, hail been familiar.
Greater Opportunity
"But this work gives me a
greater opportunity to perform
the duties for which I was or-
dained," he said, during an
interview . in his comfortable
apartment in the hospital.
"I'm not concerned with the
usual parish projects such as
fund-raising and socials," he
said. "Here, I am exclusively
concerned with saying mass, ad-
ministering t h e sacraments,
counselling the sick and aiding
the families of our patients."
The day begins early for
Father Feeney, at 5:45 a,m.,
when a bedside alarm clock
arouses him from seven hours
of sleep. If he's been lucky, no
emergency has interrupted that
sleep.
He says mass in the hospital
chapel at 6:25 a.m., with an
audience of nursing sisters,
several lay nurses and perhaps
a patient or two.
After breakfast, he starts his
rounds: He takes communion to
all desiring it on three floors
of the hospital each day. , On
Sunday, communion is taken to
all six floors. The hospital has
470 beds.
.A daily list provided by the
hospital gives the names and
religious affiliations of all those
admitted to the hospital . in the
past 24 hours.
Poses' Problem
The religious affiliation of
patients poses a problem for
hospital chaplains that differ-
ent hospitals meet in different
ways.
"Some people think I should
visit every patient, Catholic,
Protestant, Jew or otherwise.
But I think visiting .non-Catholic
patients might be resented or
perhaps misinterpreted."
As a result, he confines his
unsolicited visits to those of his
own faith. But he is prepared
to go to the bedside of any pa-
tient needing help or wanting
to talk about spiritual matters.
He estimates that about 60
per cent of St. Mary's patients
are Protestants. They are vis-
ited by their own ministers or
by any Protestant pastor who
may be making rounds..
One of Father Feeney's most
important functions is admin-
istering extreme unction, the
anointing ceremony for Roman
Catholics who are gravely ill
or in danger of dying.
In the past year, more than
200 patients have received the
sacrament. While some patients
hesitate to accept annointing,
fearing that it may mean death
is imminent, the chaplain is
quick to point out the positive
value of it.
"Experience shows that the
sick person is always more calm
and peaceful after receiving the
last sacraments," he says.
"In fact, we believe that
Christ instituted this sacrament
for the very purpose of com-
forting and quieting the sick."
Since saving souls is the prim-
ary task of every priest,
Father Feeney takes great sat-
isfaction in knowing that sick-
ness and a hospital visit often
lead backsliding Catholics back
to active faith again.
In a parish, he says, a priest
may have difficulty reaching
the indifferent.
"But illness gives backsliders
an opportunity to think quietly
about their faith. They often
take communion ,for the first
time in years.
"In fact, the hospital visit
can be a turning point as far
as religious duties are concern-
ed," he added. "Once people
have made a fresh beginning
with confession and communion,
they often continue faithfully."
Avoids Arguments
But Father Feeney is careful
to, avoid religious arguments. 3f
a non -practising Roman Catholic
patientrebuffs his talk of faith,
he simply promises to pray for
the patient and leaves. _
Appointment of a hospital
chaplain reflects the modern
concern with.treating the whole
man—mind and body. The chap-
lain works in co-operation with
the medical services to effect
healing.
But the job still is a rare one.
In fact, Father Feeney is one
of only three full-time chaplains
in the Hamilton Diocese. The
other two are at Guelph and
Hamilton.
The priest was born in Dublin
and attended St. Jerome's Col-
lege. He later taught English
and history at St. Jerome's
High School •and at Scollard
Hall, North Bay.
He also spent two years in
Bermuda, where lie got his first
taste of hospital work. He was
the visitor at a small, 20 -bed

hospital. After his return to
Canada he was asked to become
the first full-time chaplain at
St. Mary's Hospital.
Until then, priests from St.
Mary's parish performed the
duties. They fill in for Father
Feeney during his day off each
weeks and during his annual
vacation.
