PART I ASSIGNMENT QUESTION 1 OBJECTIVE:
This assignment is to evaluate learners’ analytical skills in addressing issues related to spiritual care in patients.
SYNOPSIS:
A World Health Organisation report published in 1998 recognised that:
… until recently the health professions have largely followed a medical model, which seeks to treat patients by focusing on medicines and surgery, and gives less importance to beliefs and to faith – in healing, in the physician and in the doctor–patient relationship. This reductionism or mechanistic view of patients as being only a material body is no longer satisfactory. Patients and physicians have begun to realise the value of elements such as faith, hope and compassion in the healing process. The value of such ‘spiritual’ elements in health and quality of life has led to research in this field in an attempt to move towards a more holistic view of health that includes a non-material dimension (emphasising the seamless connections between mind and body). (p. 2)
TASK:
a) Based on the above statement, discuss the importance of spiritual care in patients including their spiritual assessments.
b) Discuss the roles of nurses in spiritual care. What are the issues that the nurses may face while dealing with spirituality?
