Collaborative Learning Community Meeting The Spiritual Needs Of The Acutely And Or Chronically Ill

Introduction

The collaborative learning community meeting is a training for health care providers working in a team environment. It is designed to introduce them to spiritual needs of patients with acute and chronic illnesses. The purpose of the collaborative learning community meeting is to:

Purpose Of The Collaborative Learning Community

The purpose of the Collaborative Learning Community is to enhance the quality of life for individuals with chronic illness and their families.

The goals are to:

• Build community through education, sharing and support.

• Provide opportunities for individuals with chronic illness or caregivers who have an acute illness or condition.

• Facilitate collaboration between health care providers, schools, employers and other organizations by providing resources that promote wellness in all community members including those with ongoing health issues such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or Parkinson’s Disease (PD).

To identify the spiritual needs of acutely and or chronically ill persons.

Spiritual needs are a need that is not met by the physical, emotional, or social needs.

Spiritual needs can be expressed as a desire to connect with something greater than oneself. This could include spiritual practices such as meditation and prayer. It may also refer to having an intimate relationship with God or another person (or even yourself).

Describe how health care providers working in a team environment can provide quality care for patients with acute and chronic illnesses.

The importance of working as a team is critical to providing quality care for patients with acute and chronic illnesses. When working together, health care providers can ensure that all the needs of their patient are met.

Working as part of a collaborative learning community helps provide holistic care by helping you understand the spiritual needs of your patients. In addition to knowing what those spiritual needs are, it also allows you to better understand how they fit into your role as a healthcare provider or nurse. It will allow you to make informed decisions about when it’s appropriate for them seek outside help or if they should be referred directly back into their home environment (if this is possible).

Determine the role of health care providers regarding a patient’s spiritual needs.

Health care providers should be aware of their patient’s spiritual needs. The provider should have the ability to identify spiritual needs and discuss them with patients, as well as refer patients who need further assistance in this area.

Examine how each spiritual need identified is addressed by the health care provider.

The spiritual needs of the acutely and chronically ill are addressed by healthcare providers, who are often on a tight schedule with limited time to spend with patients. This can make it difficult for them to provide adequate care for patients’ spiritual needs. The patient is also responsible for ensuring that their own physical and mental health is maintained while they are in treatment; this means they must take responsibility for addressing these issues as well.

In addition, the family members who care for someone who has been diagnosed with cancer or other chronic illness may not have been formally trained in any way regarding how best to support their loved one through this challenging transition period (Kazdin & Koocher). For example, families may feel overwhelmed by financial concerns related to treatment costs or hospital admissions due to lack of awareness about available resources such as social security benefits or long-term care insurance coverage
