  11. Lancaster General Health Chaplaincy Care Note: How did you select this pt? i.e. consult from [name], [title]; self-initiated based on…; pt requested visit; etc. Assessment: identify the spiritual risks, concerns, or struggles as well as the spiritual resources that the patient and/or family bring to this current hospitalization. Consider these areas: life review, hopes, values, fear, meaning purpose, beliefs about afterlife, spiritual or religious practices, and cultural norms, beliefs that influence understanding of illness, loss history, coping, guilt, forgiveness, and life completion tasks. Goals for Spiritual Care: Given the above assessment, what are the goals for the patient or family during this hospitalization? Interventions: How did you work towards these Goals during the visit? Outcomes: What were the results of your visit? How did patient or family respond? Describe behavioral changes to that indicate response. Was there progress toward the goals? Is there more work to be done toward the goals? If so, how will that be done? Follow-up needed?

  12. Example 1 LGH Assessment:  Patient is grieving mastectomy and now the impending loss of fertility and her child-rearing days. History of childhood abuse is contributing to confusing feelings about changes in body image and sexual intimacy. Faith is very important aspect of spiritual life. Pt is seeking Catholic perspective on moral / ethical dimensions of hysterectomy prior to making decision. Patient’s husband is very supportive.

  14. Test Pilot Feedback Positives Method for evaluation Most evaluations matched on 4 samples Sparked some good discussion Good tool to help students learn to chart Negatives As is: only good for Assessment Did not like thorough prefer adequate Would like a description of “effective” and “thorough” Not entirely clear how to use—several different interpretations
