I took my nursing training in a Catholic hospital, and my classmates were a mix of Jews, Protestants, Catholics, and a couple of atheists ( I was one of those). I've worked for Catholic hospitals, and for a Seventh-Day Adventist hospital down south, and neither asked for my religion. By law, they aren't allowed to.

No. I used to work at a Catholic hospital. They have never asked about religious affiliation.

No
I knew Doctors who were from India, Persia, Arabia who had hospital privillages in Catholic run hospitals.
Probably even some Jewish Doctors had privillages there.

Yes, religious organizations can fire you for any reason. They are exempt from most all non-discrimination laws. The supreme court recently ruled the nurses at a religious hospital could join a union.

No. I just got out of Mayo Clinic, the best Christian hospital in the world, and the doctor that treated me was an atheist.

You'd probably need some sort of MEDICAL affiliation to work in one. You know like doctor or nurse or med tech or whatever.
Unless you're working in admin.

No, that can not ask you about religious affiliation of any kind.

No, nor do you have to be Catholic to get money and services from Catholic Charities.

No. But it might help since you see crucifixes on the walls and priests and nuns walking the halls.
