本文運用Worden之「悲傷輔導原則」協助一位男同志度過在喪失伴侶期間所引發之悲傷,並完成「哀悼的四個任務」。護理期間為2010年4月15日至2010年12月15日,自十篇行為過程紀錄中依Worden悲傷反應加以評估分析,發現個案的悲傷反應在感覺方面包括悲傷、憤怒、愧疚與自責、焦慮、疲倦、孤獨及無助感;身體感官知覺方面為口乾、吃不下、對聲音敏感;認知方面有難以相信伴侶即將死亡的事實、沉迷於對逝者的思念及感到逝者仍然存在的反應;行為方面出現失眠、社會退縮、避免提起伴侶、哭泣、舊地重遊等行為反應。照護過程中,筆者運用悲傷輔導的概念與原則提供照護,陪伴個案度過悲傷過程及面對四個哀悼的任務,並協助其向逝者告別完成其喪偶之哀慟,個案於喪偶後八個月已逐漸完成接受失落的事實、經驗悲傷的痛苦、重新適應一個伴侶已不在的新環境及將情感重新投注在未來生活上等四個哀悼任務。
