Bereavement care is considered an integral component of quality end-of-life care endorsed by the palliative care movement. However, few hospitals and health care institutions offer universal bereavement care to all families of patients who die. The current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has highlighted this gap and created a sense of urgency, from a public health perspective, for institutions to provide support to bereaved family members. In this article, drawing on the palliative care and bereavement literature, we offer suggestions about how to incorporate palliative care tools and psychological strategies into bereavement care for families during this pandemic.
哀伤关怀被视为姑息治疗运动所认可的优质临终关怀的一个不可或缺的组成部分。然而,很少有医院和医疗机构为所有去世患者的家属提供全面的哀伤关怀。当前的2019冠状病毒病大流行凸显了这一差距,并从公共卫生角度营造了一种紧迫感,促使各机构为丧亲家属提供支持。在本文中,我们借鉴姑息治疗和哀伤关怀方面的文献,就如何在此次大流行期间将姑息治疗工具和心理策略纳入对家属的哀伤关怀提出建议。
