Best Answer

Anointing of the sick can be admininstered to any person, lay or clergy, and essentially at any time but usually when the person is in a serious illness. Anointing of the sick must be administered by a clergy member, defined as one who has received the Holy Orders sacrament. This must be done by someone who is a priest and not a deacon since it involves also the sacrament of Reconciliation. Anointing of the sick is not a required sacrament in order to be worthy of Christ's saving grace, however it certainly does help by putting the sick individual back in a state of grace prior to death.
