AI Contract Overview
The contract involves providing comprehensive spiritual care services at Elmira Psychiatric Center, operated by the New York State Office of Mental Health. The selected provider will serve as a trauma-informed, inclusive chaplain, responsible for leading therapeutic group discussions, facilitating worship services across diverse spiritual backgrounds, offering grief and bereavement support, and planning observances for significant religious and cultural events. The chaplain will also deliver individual spiritual support, including administering rites and sacraments, particularly for patients experiencing emotional crises, those nearing discharge, or facing critical health issues. The role requires experience in interfaith practices, community counseling, and a strong understanding of the spiritual and emotional needs of individuals with mental health diagnoses. The contract emphasizes ethical standards such as confidentiality, boundaries, and non-coercion, with a minimum of one group session per week on children and families' units and two worship services weekly on adult units, along with specialized programs and community outreach. The contract, set to run from November 13, 2025, through November 12, 2026, does not have an incumbent contractor and requires candidates to possess ecclesiastical endorsement and relevant interfaith experience. The procurement process includes a detailed RFQ with submission deadlines, insurance, and confidentiality requirements, and is open to service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. The agreement is formalized through a detailed contract (T202804), which outlines scope, funding, and compliance obligations, ensuring the provision of culturally sensitive, trauma-informed spiritual care tailored to a diverse patient population within the inpatient psychiatric setting. The project aims to enhance holistic mental health treatment by integrating spiritual support aligned with ethical and professional standards.
