This assignment
requires you to interview one person and requires an analysis of your interview
experience.
Part I: Interview
Select a patient, a
family member, or a friend to interview. Be sure to focus on the interviewee’s
experience as a patient, regardless of whom you choose to interview.
Review The Joint
Commission resource found in topic materials, which provides some guidelines
for creating spiritual assessment tools for evaluating the spiritual needs of
patients. Using this resource and any other guidelines/examples that you can
find, create your own tool for assessing the spiritual needs of patients.
Your spiritual needs
assessment survey must include a minimum of five questions that can be answered
during the interview. During the interview, document the interviewee’s
responses.
The transcript should
include the questions asked and the answers provided. Be sure to record the
responses during the interview by taking detailed notes. Omit specific names
and other personal information through which the interviewee can be determined.
Part II: Analysis
Write a 500-750 word
analysis of your interview experience. Be sure to exclude specific names and
other personal information from the interview. Instead, provide demographics
such as sex, age, ethnicity, and religion. Include the following in your
response:
1.
What went well?
2.
Were there any barriers
or challenges that inhibited your ability to complete the assessment tool? How
would you address these in the future or change your assessment to better
address these challenges?
3.
How can this tool
assist you in providing appropriate interventions to meet the needs of your
patient?
4.
Did you discover that
illness and stress amplified the spiritual concern and needs of your
interviewee? Explain your answer with examples.
Submit both the
transcript of the interview and the analysis of your results. This should be
submitted as one document. The interview transcript does not figure into the
word count.

Topic 5 DQ 1
What is your
definition of “spiritual care?” How does it differ or accord with the
description given in the topic readings? Explain.
Topic 5 DQ 2
When it comes to
facilitating spiritual care for patients with worldviews different from your
own, what are your strengths and weaknesses? If you were the patient, who would
have the final say in terms of ethical decision-making and intervention in the
event of a difficult situation?
Details:
The practice of health
care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety
of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith
expressions.
The purpose of this
paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation and
decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and
a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that
is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh,
Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc.
In your comparative
analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and
your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for
the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each
religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.
In a minimum of
1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief
systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and
answering the following questions based on the research:
1.
How would each
religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a
“why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is
ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
2.
In George’s analysis
of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a
person, and value of his life with ALS?
3.
What sorts of values
and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether
or not George should opt for euthanasia?
4.
Given the above, what
options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
5.
Finally, present and
defend your own view.
Support your position
by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU
Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the
textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included.
A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed
above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate,
scholarly manner.
