Families of potential post-mortem organ donors face various challenges in the unfamiliar hospital context and after returning home. This review of sources published between 1968 and 2017 seeks to understand their journey as a bereavement experience with a number of unique features. Grief theory was used to identify ways that staff can assist family members to tolerate ambiguities and vulnerabilities while contributing to an environment characterised by compassion and social inclusion. Staff can guide families and create opportunities for meaningful participation, building resilience and developing bereavement-related skills that could assist them in the months that follow.
潜在的尸检器官捐赠者的家属在陌生的医院环境中以及回家后会面临各种挑战。这篇对1968年至2017年间发表的资料进行的综述旨在了解他们作为一种具有诸多独特特征的丧亲经历的历程。悲伤理论被用于确定工作人员可以帮助家庭成员容忍不确定性和脆弱性的方式,同时营造一个富有同情心和社会包容的环境。工作人员可以引导家属并创造有意义的参与机会,培养复原力并发展与丧亲相关的技能,这些技能可以在接下来的几个月里帮助他们。
