A priest is the ordinary minister of the Sacrament of the Sick.
The sacrament is now known as the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick and it can only be administered by a priest.
The term is "anointing" of the sick, and it is simply putting anointing oil on the person (usually on the head) and then praying for God to heal them.
When a person who is sick and in danger of dying.
It is not necessarily given during the anointing of the sick, but can be if requested.
Viaticum is the Holy Eucharist as administered to those who are dying or in danger of death. It is usually administered during the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. However, if no priest is available for the anointing, an Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist may provide the Eucharist to the person but they would be unable to anoint the person or hear their confession.
I believe YES.
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.
The parish priest should administer anointing of the sick.

The Anointing of the Sick is one of the seven sacraments. Usually, the priest goes to a hospital or a home (depending on the case) to bless those who are sick, injured, or are recovering.the definition to "anointing of the sick" is the following:all person who is believed to be severely ill is to be anointed meaning, the ill receives confession he also receives communion. The father will anoint him with blessed oil on his forehead. This will serve as the persons reconciliation with the church but most important with God and Jesus Christ. The person is anointed giving the possibility he/she may pass away.
In James chapter 5 it says Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, pray over him, anoint him with oil in the Name of the Lord(Jesus); and the prayer of faith save the sick and the Lord shall raise him up, and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
