Abstract

There is a significant minority of the hospital population for whom hospitalization raises profound existential questions: the meaning and purpose of a dramatic life change or the realization of one’s own mortality. This can impact on the spirit – the sense of inner well-being and contentment of the individual. The realization of mortality impacts more widely, both on the patient and those in their wider circle. The opportunity to receive care which permits the exploration of existential questions and unconditionally embraces the anguish they evoke can be of real benefit. Nervecentre is an electronic patient care record administration system, which has been recognized for its benefits in improving access to and provision of spiritual care. The implementation of Nervecentre has increased the visibility of chaplains, strengthening the relationships supporting the delivery of spiritual care at the end of life.
利用电子病历系统加强对病人的精神关怀
有相当一部分住院患者对住院提出了深刻的存在主义问题:戏剧性的生活变化的意义和目的,或对自己死亡的认识。这会影响到精神——个人内心的幸福感和满足感。死亡率的实现影响更广泛,既对病人,也对他们更广泛的圈子。接受照顾的机会允许探索存在的问题,并无条件地拥抱它们所引起的痛苦,这可能是真正有益的。神经中心是一个电子病人护理记录管理系统,它在改善获得和提供精神护理方面的好处得到了认可。神经中心的实施增加了牧师的可见度,加强了支持在生命结束时提供精神护理的关系。

期刊介绍: Health and Social Care Chaplaincy is a peer-reviewed, international journal that assists health and social care chaplains to explore the art and science of spiritual care within a variety of contexts. The journal was founded in 2013 through the merger of the Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy (issn:1748-801X) and the Scottish Journal of Healthcare Chaplaincy (issn:1463-9920) . It continues to be the official journal of the College of Health Care Chaplains and members of the society receive the journal as part of their annual membership. For more details on membership subscriptions, please click on the ''members'' button at the top of this page. Back issues of both previous journals are being loaded onto this website (see Archives) and online access to these back issues is included in all institutional subscriptions. Health and Social Care Chaplaincy is a multidisciplinary forum for the discussion of a range of issues related to the delivery of spiritual care across various settings: acute, paediatric, mental health, palliative care and community. It encourages a creative collaboration and interface between health and social care practitioners in the UK and internationally and consolidates different traditions of discourse and communication research in its commitment to an understanding of psychosocial, cultural and ethical aspects of healthcare in contemporary societies. It is responsive to both ecumenical and interfaith agendas as well as those from a humanist perspective.
