摘要
本文描述照顧一位壯年鼻咽癌末期併多重轉移病人產生無望感之護理經驗，護理期間自2018年6月5日至6月30日，以Gordon十一項功能性健康型態進行整體性評估，藉由身體評估、會談、傾聽、檢驗數據等方式收集資料，確認健康問題有：口腔黏膜改變、疼痛、營養狀態改變／少於身體需要、腹瀉、潛在皮膚完整性受損、睡眠型態紊亂、無望感、預期性哀傷等健康問題。個案面臨疾病造成的身體疼痛、疾病進展至末期的身心靈困擾，照護期間藉由傾聽與陪伴建立護病信任關係，鼓勵個案與家屬表達心中不安的情緒，與醫療團隊合作，依據放射線口腔黏膜炎照護指引，提供個別化的口腔黏膜衛教及飲食指導，運用輔助療法如：舒適臥位、穴位按摩、音樂療法等減輕疾病帶來的疼痛，降低個案面對癌症的無望感。住院期間接受安寧共同照護，出院轉由安寧居家，持續追蹤病人疼痛情形及提供靈性關懷。希望藉此護理經驗的分享，期許臨床護理師日後在照顧此類病人時，運用於臨床照護實務中，讓病人及家屬獲得真正身心靈的安適。
