Would a reasonable person be offended if another offered to pray for them? Do folks have a right to be saved from any single thing which might - in the least amount - offend them?

Look. If someone went to a church, then it would be fine to ask that person if they needed some prayers, and you could even pray with them. Churches can offer prayer provided you are inside church walls. Working at a hospital, your job is to care for patients and make them comfortable. It is not your job to ask people if they want your prayers. It is not in your job description. If the patient requests that you pray with them then IMO that is fine, but you, as an employee, cannot ask the patient as it is not your job to do this.

Now, hold on here, what happened to 1st Amendment rights? Accordingly to that, she has every right to pray for whomever she wants, and ask them if they'd like her to pray for, as long as she does not harass them about it.

Let's also look at the point that the patient that she prayed for, as per the article, did not find it offensive in any way. The hospital decided to make it offensive, but then, I don't seem them stepping in and stopping any of the various other religions aside from Christianity from praying in the hospital. This, to me, is not within the hospital's rights, to determine which prayers are good and which are bad, since, as you put it, "It's not in their job description".
