Methods or Approaches Proposed for Assessing Spiritual Needs in Palliative Care

Eren Kuan

According to its definition, palliative care is "An strategy that enhances the quality of life of patients and their families who are dealing with issues related to life-threatening disease." With the detection, evaluation, and treatment of pain and other issues, whether they are physical, psychological, or spiritual, it avoids and alleviates suffering. I want to learn about and satisfy the needs of my patients and their loved ones as a palliative care physician. I am a generalist since I have had specialised training in psychological, social, and spiritual difficulties, as well as in evaluating and treating "pain and other bodily symptoms". The evaluation of spiritual requirements in palliative care is presented using two methods: The first involves incorporating the four analytical aspects of palliative care: utilising an instrument, assessing spiritual requirements or well-being, and assessing overall life satisfaction while paying particular attention to spiritual matters. Second, a wholistic strategy is encouraged, with consideration for the patient's account of their life, illness, and suffering. Medical, ethical, and spiritual topics may be covered in the clinical interaction without compromising its integrity. It is essential to expand our clinical vocabulary to include terms related to ethics, psychological issues, and religion. Self-analysis, interdisciplinary cooperation, and specialised interdisciplinary training may be helpful to establish such a clinical vocabulary.
