Although the specialty of palliative nursing and palliative care continues to grow in hospital and outpatient settings, a paucity of home-based palliative services remains. This article discusses a new paradigm of faith-based palliative care ministry using faith community nurses (FCNs). Under the leadership of a palliative care doula (a nurse expert in palliative care), nurses in the faith community can offer critical support to those with serious illness. Models such as this provide stimulating content for FCN practice and opportunity to broaden health ministry within faith communities.
尽管姑息护理和姑息治疗专业在医院和门诊环境中持续发展，但基于家庭的姑息服务仍然匮乏。本文讨论了一种利用信仰社区护士开展基于信仰的姑息治疗事工的新模式。在姑息治疗导乐（姑息治疗方面的护士专家）的领导下，信仰社区的护士可以为重症患者提供关键支持。这样的模式为信仰社区护士的实践提供了引人入胜的内容，也为在信仰社区内拓展健康事工提供了机会。
