— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
尊重個案的靈性需求是護理的重要職責。當面對陌生信仰時，透過專業宗教師（Chaplain）的介入能確保儀式符合其宗教背景，且能為個案提供適切的心靈支柱。拒絕參與或建議其他儀式皆屬於強加個人價值觀，應予以避免。
Respecting the client's spiritual needs is an important nursing responsibility. When confronted with an unfamiliar faith, involving a professional chaplain ensures that the ritual aligns with the client's religious background and provides appropriate spiritual support. Declining to participate or recommending an alternative ritual would impose personal values and should be avoided.
