Abstract

ABSTRACT Spiritual care remains a neglected dimension in the context of living in residential aged care facilities. Using a grounded theory methodology, in-depth interviews were conducted with 17 Nepalese aged care residents, 3 nurses, and 4 caregivers to explore the residents’ spiritual needs and how nurses/caregivers perceive and respond to these. The analysis revealed that the process of providing spiritual care and meeting spiritual care needs are complex, which includes preparing internally, interacting with residents, integrating care, and involving in residents’ spiritual practices. To facilitate appropriate and the required spiritual care, effort to increase nurses and caregivers’ readiness and ensure managerial support are crucial.

精神护理仍然是居住在住宅养老机构的背景下被忽视的维度。采用扎根理论方法，对17名尼泊尔老年护理居民、3名护士和4名护理人员进行深度访谈，探讨居民的精神需求以及护士/护理人员如何感知和应对这些需求。分析发现，提供精神照护及满足精神照护需求的过程是复杂的，包括内部准备、与住院医师互动、整合照护及参与住院医师的精神实践。为了促进适当和必要的精神护理，努力提高护士和护理人员的准备程度并确保管理支持是至关重要的。
