Abstract

U suvremeno doba sve više se govori o smrti i umirućim osobama koje boluju od neizlječivih bolesti. Prepoznaje se potreba i važnost palijativne skrbi u procesu umiranja zbog toga što palijativna skrb pomaže stvoriti okolnosti u kojima umiranje postaje dostojanstveno. Palijativna skrb obuhvaća samog pacijenta, njegovu obitelj te okolinu. Pruža se na više razina, pomaže osobi olakšati bol te pomaže u psihološkim, socijalnim i duhovnim potrebama. Jedna od važnijih razina palijativne skrbi je duhovna skrb. Duhovna skrb pomaže pacijentima da se lakše suoče sa krajem života koji se bliži, da pronađu smisao svog života, da se lakše nose sa tjeskobom te poboljšava kvalitetu života pacijenata. U svakom trenutku života čovjek treba očuvati dostojanstvo. Očuvanje dostojanstva čovjeka odnosi se na očuvanje individualnosti, samopoštovanje te ljudskosti. Prilikom umiranja u očuvanju dostojanstva čovjeka uvelike pomaže duhovnost. Kroz duhovnost se pomaže umirućem pacijentu da pobjedi strah od smrti i prihvati svoju bolest te pronađe mir i spokoj.
