Cathy Nickse

I joined the UMH family in July of 2015 and work as the Coordinator of Spiritual Care for our Wesley Village Campus, offering guidance and support to our residents, families, and staff. I began my Chaplain training at Griffin Hospital in Derby and completed my Chaplain training as a Resident Chaplain at Bridgeport Hospital in May of 2015. I work closely with members of the local community of faith to meet the spiritual needs of our residents; cultivating relationships, and ministering to the body, mind, and spirit.

Recently, a UMH colleague sent me a weekly online newsletter focusing on kindness, and I began to reflect upon the uplifting power of kindness.

I want to live in a world where kindness is the philosophy of life. We each have an opportunity every day to show many acts of kindness through words and through deeds.
