摘要:

AbstractMind-body medicine is transforming the way many people think about the human body in health and disease. In this paper the author reviews how a biopsychosocial model is influencing medical thinking, and outlines principles and methods for practicing healthcare professionals who would like to more systematically incorporate a mind-body approach into their encounters with patients. Implications of healthcare reform are noted.

摘要:

AbstractChaplains are increasingly called on to demonstrate the value of their work as health care dollars shrink. This article describes three methods to accomplish that task. Primary attention is given to two recent research publications which report that persons who use religious/spiritual resources to cope with negative life events produce better outcomes. We explore the possibility of conducting similar studies with general hospital patients to test the benefits of pastoral care.

摘要:

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between selected patient and family variables and family attendance at hospital memorial services. In a fifteen month period, 15% of the invited families attended a memorial service. Attendance at the services was found to be associated with (p≤.05): relationship of next of kin, patient's religion, and number of days the patient was hospitalized in the six months prior to death (excluding the last hospitalization).

摘要:

AbstractThe use of bioethical guidelines does not assure that bioethical consultation or decision-making will be ethical. Bioethical principles must be discovered, interpreted and articulated into guidelines. Guidelines, when implemented, must be evaluated. Competence in bioethics is not a matter of certification, but of substantive learning, compassion and love.
