The holistic care of those with a specific religious faith and those with a spiritual belief is important for good family-centred care. Within a busy clinical setting an important aspect of spiritual care is enabling participation in religious observance, where desired. Children's nurses, midwives and hospital chaplains are instrumental in striving to ensure that both a suitable environment and appropriate spiritual support are offered. According to data from the 2001 census for England, Wales and Scotland, the most common religious affiliations after Christianity are Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Jewish and Buddhist. This article considers the rites, rituals or ceremonies for each of these religions which are deemed both necessary and helpful after birth or when a child is sick or dying.
对有特定宗教信仰和精神信仰的人进行整体护理,对于提供优质的以家庭为中心的护理至关重要。在繁忙的临床环境中,精神护理的一个重要方面是,在患者有需求时,使其能够参与宗教仪式。儿童护士、助产士和医院牧师在努力确保提供合适的环境和适当的精神支持方面发挥着重要作用。根据2001年英格兰、威尔士和苏格兰人口普查的数据,基督教之后最常见的宗教信仰是穆斯林、印度教、锡克教、犹太教和佛教。本文探讨了这些宗教中每一种在婴儿出生后、儿童生病或临终时被认为必要且有益的仪式、典礼或仪轨。
