There are times when an experience is so powerful that it evokes caring in its purest form. This is what happened when a group of healthcare providers traveled together on a trip to Peru. This article recounts a harrowing experience that called each person to give caring and receive learning regarding his or her own journey. It is about how caring can simply happen with ease and purpose. Communication and collaboration occurred effortlessly. In this experience, there was a remembering of the passion and purpose that exists when we are called to serve in healthcare settings. The learning gained included 4 key elements of caring: intent, presence, action, and surrender. This learning offers insight, direction for healthcare environments today. Healthcare leaders must be responsive to creating cultures and providing opportunities to support those serving patients to intentionally think about their caring approaches. It is possible to evoke caring through providing opportunities that help healthcare providers transcend the daily barriers to being present and be more effective in their caring. It is imperative that they experience ways to examine their ability to care for themselves and others and to reconnect to the passion of choosing the healthcare profession.
有些时候,一种经历的力量是如此强大,以至于它能唤起最纯粹形式的关怀。一群医护人员一起前往秘鲁旅行时就发生了这样的事情。本文讲述了一段令人痛苦的经历,这段经历促使每个人付出关怀,并在自己的旅程中收获成长。它讲述的是关怀如何能够轻松而有目的地自然而然地发生。沟通与协作自然而然地展开。在这段经历中,人们重新记起了我们被召唤到医疗环境中服务时所存在的激情和目标。所获得的感悟包括关怀的四个关键要素:意图、陪伴、行动和放手。这种感悟为当今的医疗环境提供了见解和方向。医疗领导者必须积极响应,营造文化氛围并提供机会,以支持那些为患者服务的人有意识地思考他们的关怀方式。通过提供机会,帮助医护人员跨越日常阻碍去陪伴患者,并在关怀中更有成效,从而唤起关怀是有可能的。他们必须体验各种方式来审视自己照顾自己和他人的能力,并重新找回选择医疗职业时的那份激情,这一点至关重要。
