Default Priesthood Blessings

Thank you for your caring concern.
We are Roman Catholics and my husband has received anointing of oil by our priest as well as Reconciliation/Confession and Holy Eucharist/Communion.
Part of the ritual is a blessing to him by our priest.
(These were once called "The Last Rites" in the Catholic Church-but the term has been changed and Catholics can receive them anytime they are sick. They do not have to be on death's door to receive them.)
