THE CLAUSE 52.232-18 REFERENCED HEREIN APPLIES TO THIS CONTRACT. STATEMENT OF WORK NONPERSONAL ROMAN CATHOLIC DAY TIME PRIEST SERVICE 1. SCOPE OF CONTRACT a. The Roman Catholic faith is a significant cross section of patients and staff requiring religious support at NMCSD. Approximately 30% of the hospital nature of pastoral care to Roman Catholics is sacramental in nature. The celebration and administration of sacraments requires the presence of a Catholic Priest. Therefore, it is essential that Catholic Priests are available to provide pastoral care and sacraments to Roman Catholic patients and staff at NMCSD and support deployments of Catholic priests in the civilian community has developed. This shortage is now reflected in the decreased availability of Catholic Chaplains in the naval sea services everywhere. The decreased availability of Catholic Chaplains has created a situation in which adequate Catholic coverage is not available at NMCSD. Therefore, we need to diverse and implement new strategies to meet the spiritual and religious needs of Roman Catholics. This requires us to use Roman Catholic assets as efficiently as possible. There is also a need to identify new and additional sources for Catholic sacramental ministry. b. As a result of the above issues, requirement exists to contract for the non-personal services of a Roman Catholic priest to assist the Navy Catholic chaplain to provide for the pastoral and sacramental needs of Roman Catholics at NMCSD.
