The authors distributed a questionnaire to various hospital staff to explore perceptions surrounding the role of chaplains in patient care and healing through assessing opinions, beliefs, and knowledge. Results revealed a poor understanding of the role of the hospital chaplain in the UK. The authors therefore advocate education programs to increase awareness of the varied role of the hospital chaplain in fulfilling patient spiritual needs to increase referral practices, leading to improved patient outcomes.
作者向多家医院的工作人员发放了一份调查问卷,通过评估他们的意见、信念和知识,来探究围绕牧师在患者护理和康复中所起作用的看法。结果显示,英国对医院牧师的角色了解不足。因此,作者提倡开展教育项目,以提高对医院牧师在满足患者精神需求方面多种作用的认识,从而增加转诊做法,改善患者治疗效果。
