You can receive the anointing of the sick or Holy Unction by simply asking the priest/pastor of the parish to administer the Sacrament.
.
Catholic AnswerThe priest can administer this sacrament anywhere. He wears a stole, has a prayer book, I believe the Ritual and a vial with the Oil of the Infirm (Sick). He reads the prayers, along with a reading from St. James, then he lays his hand on your head. Then he anoints you on the forehead and palms, and administers a blessing. If possible and needed, he will hear your confession prior to this and give you Holy Communion afterward.A priest performs the sacrament.
