丧亲护理被认为是姑息治疗运动认可的优质临终护理的一个组成部分。然而,很少有医院和保健机构向所有死亡病人的家属提供普遍的丧亲护理。当前的2019年冠状病毒病大流行凸显了这一差距,并从公共卫生的角度创造了一种紧迫感,要求机构为失去亲人的家庭成员提供支持。在这篇文章中,借鉴姑息治疗和丧亲文学,我们提供了关于如何将姑息治疗工具和心理策略纳入丧亲护理的家庭在这一流行病的建议。(C)2020年美国临终关怀和姑息医学学院。爱思唯尔公司出版All rights reserved.
Bereavement care is considered an integral component of quality end-of-life care endorsed by the palliative care movement. However, few hospitals and health care institutions offer universal bereavement care to all families of patients who die. The current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has highlighted this gap and created a sense of urgency, from a public health perspective, for institutions to provide support to bereaved family members. In this article, drawing on the palliative care and bereavement literature, we offer suggestions about how to incorporate palliative care tools and psychological strategies into bereavement care for families during this pandemic.
