9 (EAPC) Task Force on spiritual care in palliative care (SCPC) Spirituality is the dynamic dimension of human life that relates to the way persons (individual and community) experience, express and/or seek meaning, purpose and transcendence, and the way they connect to the moment, to self, to others, to nature, to the significant and/or the sacred. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PALLIATIVE CARE, 2011; 18(2)
10 Spirituality Spirituality is a dynamic and intrinsic aspect of humanity through which persons seek ultimate meaning, purpose and transcendence, and experience relationship to self, family, others, community, society, nature, and the significant or sacred. Spirituality is expressed through beliefs, values, traditions and practices. Puchalski, Christina M., et al. Improving the spiritual dimension of whole person care: Reaching national and international consensus. Journal of Palliative Medicine 17.6 (2014):
11 Defn: of spirituality Pertaining to God - belief - understanding - relationship Awareness of the transcendent the beyond in our midst Awareness of something beyond intellectual knowledge or normal sensory experience
12 Concerned with - Meaning of being fully human whole Meaning and purpose in life Interconnectedness and harmony with other people, planet Earth & Universe Right relationship with God / power or force in the Universe which transcends the present context of reality
13 Religion Shared framework of theistic beliefs & rituals within which spirituality is expressed and nurtured and the meaning of life explored Religion & spirituality not same but often intermingled Impact of a person s religion is either life engaging or life escaping
14 Religion a subset of spirituality, encompassing a system of beliefs and practices observed by a community, supported by rituals that acknowledge, worship, communicate with, or approach the Sacred, the Divine, God (in Western cultures), or Ultimate Truth, Reality, or nirvana (in Eastern cultures). i, Christina M., et al. Improving the spiritual dimension of whole person care: Reaching national and international consensus. Journal of Palliative Medicine 17.6 (2014):

16 Signs of spiritual distress Sense of hopelessness, helplessness, meaninglessness (withdrawn, suicidal) Vivid dreams, nightmares Intense suffering, isolation Remoteness of God Anger towards God why questions Undue stoicism Sense of guilt / shame Bitter & unforgiving of others
17 Multi-faith environment Believer - Belonging to a particular faith (Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Buddhist, Jain, Jew) - submitted to God s will - stuck on miracles - Faith - established / Lost / increased - Some belief in a higher being no religion Atheist

19 Build a relationship of trust Competence knowledge, skills, communication Character & compassion Truthfulness Prayer
20 Asses & meet spiritual needs Prayer Religious activities rituals Visitation Communication
21 Spiritual dialogue Relationships - with God - with family - with others - need to be forgiven / forgive Values - that are dear to you - that you want to pass on to your family/ friends
22 Spiritual dialogue Meaning - what gives you meaning & purpose in life? - share some meaningful moments in life Hope - what is your hope? - belief in afterlife? Peace - what gives you peace? - do you have peace?

30 Spiritual care: Quality Indicators (18) 1. Structural indicators Process indicators Outcomes - 6
31 Important Listen to their experience Share your experience in love (not forcing) Never argue, force or compel Sometimes being there more important than doing or talking Providing neat answers unlikely to be helpful Encourage finding own answers meaning in their suffering
32 Remember God s Spirit ministers to the spirit of the person We are only instruments in His hands What we may see - is acceptance - submission - peace
33 Counseling
34 Prayer
35 Comments by families Godly, compassionate, timely, excellent, Angelic support Team gave courage to my mother and helped me handle the situation Team became like our family members Never seen such caring health professionals We pray for strength to the team to take care of more people

38 Feed back to Question - Was our spiritual support through discussion and prayer - comforting? (76%) - acceptable? (24%) - upsetting? ( 0%) - unacceptable? (0%)
39 Conclusion Spiritual care must be provided Can be done sensitively Must be done in love We can never fully understand a person s spiritual pain We are only partners with God in His healing ministry Does help in accepting the situation and in obtaining peace.
40 Our motivation & guidance Lord Jesus said in His sermon on the mount (Matthew 5:13,14) You are the salt of the earth You are the light of the world Light to expel the darkness of death by the light of the world - - JESUS! By lifting up JESUS! By giving them JESUS! Jesus love compels us to be competent, compassionate and committed in serving the suffering and dying and allowing them to die peacefully with dignity and HOPE
