摘要

筆者試著回觀反映多年在特教學校護理實務現場的實踐知識。目前台灣共有25所特殊教育學校，特殊學校的身心障礙學生自我照顧能力不足，身心狀況皆需特別照顧。筆者所任職之學校有3歲到22歲發展遲緩身心障礙學生四百餘人。其中以中、重度智能遲緩者為主，亦包含多重障礙者。特教學校護理師有賴平日長期對於身心障礙學生的觀察，熟悉這些學生個性特質、健康病史和潛在危險因素，並且利用「身體評估與護理過程」確立護理診斷與預測可能病況，執行過程雖然不容易但卻是最有效的方法。特教護理實務之內涵著重在傷病護理、傳染病防治、口腔衛生、急迫性異物梗塞處理與穩住突發性危險病況、到院前救護、伊比力斯（epilepsy）護理與急救、特殊個案與罕見疾病之照護、教師與照顧者的照護教育等。此外，學生家庭與特教學生的照護息息相關、家庭與學校息息相關，要做好特教護理，更須暸解其家庭的問題以及學習環境的助力與阻力；以發揮溝通的功能，串聯學生、老師、家長三方，彼此協同磨合，照護學生的同時，並深耕護理專業於學生的家庭。特教護理實踐，必須在不斷的解決問題當中，提煉與建構出適切的方法，之後才能使特教生多元的問題迎刃而解；也才能在完整且持續的護理過程中，將點點滴滴不凡的愛從實踐中付出給特殊學生！！
