During the Covid19 Pandemic and forward, Chaplains will increase their role as Health Promoter and Disease Prevention. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The rhythm and dynamism of society give human groups new biological and behavioral profiles. The changes observed since the Covid-19 pandemic in the human trajectory allow us to verify: population aging, the growth of city populations, migratory phenomena between towns, changes in epidemiological patterns, the phenomenon of globalization, which speeds up the exchange of health information worldwide etc. (Rise of the Chaplains<\/a>). These and many other phenomena added to the chaos that Covid-19 created changed the demands and encouraged the reformulation of health practices. This fact implies the need to assist populations in an ever-faster way, to act in the promotion of health and the prevention of diseases, all of this, aiming at more effective health care (Covid-19 changes that could last long term<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n This points towards an increase in healthcare while the large circulation of information on health-disease-care will make patients increasingly informed about their complaints and act less as patients and more as agents of their own process of diagnosis and care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This has committed us to developing creative forms that are very different from what was practiced that is looming, becoming obsolete and today it will not be strange to speak of primary pastoral health care given by phone, via the Internet, through guidance in chat rooms (Microsoft Team), by voice messaging and webcam (Face-Time, Zoom or Microsoft Team) and, in addition, and often carried out in groups.<\/p>\n\n\n
