Abstract

Spirituality is an essential part of human beings. Spiritual care, designed to meet the spiritual needs of terminally ill patients and their families, is one of the most important aspects of hospice and palliative care (HPC). This study reviewed and analyzed literature utilizing the most commonly used Korean and international healthcare databases to identify care models that adequately address the spiritual needs of terminally ill patients and their families in practice. The results of this study show that spirituality is an intrinsic part of humans, meaning that people are holistic beings. The literature has provided ten evidence-based theories that can be used as models in HPC. Three of the models focus on how the spiritual care outcomes of viewing spiritual health, quality of life, and coping, are important outcomes. The remaining seven models focus on implementation of spiritual care. The "whole-person care model" addresses the multidisciplinary collaboration within HPC. The "existential functioning model" emphasizes the existential needs of human beings. The "open pluralism view" considers the cultural diversity and other types of diversity of care recipients. The "spiritual-relational view" and "framework of systemic organization" models focus on the relationship between hospital palliative care teams and terminally ill patients. The "principal components model" and "actioning spirituality and spiritual care in education and training model" explain the overall dynamics of the spiritual care process. Based on these models, continuous clinical research efforts are needed to establish an optimal spiritual care model for HPC.

영성은 인간의 본질적인 부분으로 말기 환자와 가족의 실제적인 영적요구 충족을 위한 영적돌봄은 HPC에서 가장 중요한 영역이다. 말기환자와 가족의 실제적인 영적요구에 부응하는 돌봄모형을 확인하기 위해 최근 보건의료계에서 가장 많이 사용하는 국 내외 database를 검색하여 분석한 결과, 영성은 전인적 존재인 인간의 본질적인 부분으로, 삶의 위기상황에 더욱 충족되어야 할 존재론적 특성으로서, 말기 환자의 영성평가는 HPCT이 기본적으로 갖추어야 할 역량임이 확인되었다. HPC에 evidence based theory로 활용 가능한 총 10개의 모델이 제시되었다. 세 개의 모델들은 영적돌봄 결과에 초점을 둔 모델로서, spiritual health, QOL, and coping을 중요한 outcome으로 보는 모델들이었다. 영적돌봄수행에 초점을 둔 모델은 7개였으며, HPCT의 다학제간 협력을 통한 돌봄과정을 나타낸 'Wholeperson Care Model', 인간의 보편적인 실존적 요구충족이 보완된 'An Existential Functioning Model', 대상자의 문화적, 그 외 다양성을 고려하는 'An Open Pluralism View', HPCT와 말기환자와의 관계중심모델인 'A spiritual-relational view' and 'The Framework of Systemic Organization', 영적돌봄과정의 전체적 역동을 설명하는 'The principal components model' and 'The Actioning Spirituality and Spiritual care in Education and Training model'이 있다. 이러한 모델을 토대로 HPC에서 가장 최선의 영적돌봄 모델 구축을 위한 지속적인 임상연구 노력이 계속될 필요가 있겠다.
