  • Palliative Care Continues to Grow in Hospital and Outpatient Settings, a Paucity of Home-Based Palliative Services Remains
    1.5 contact hours ABSTRACT: Although the specialty of palliative nursing and palliative care continues to grow in hospital and outpatient settings, a paucity of home-based palliative services remains. This article discusses a new paradigm of faith-based palliative care ministry using faith community nurses (FCNs). Under the leadership of a palliative care doula (a nurse expert in palliative care), nurses in the faith community can offer critical support to those with serious illness. Models such as this provide stimulating content for FCN practice and opportunity to broaden health ministry within faith communities. KEY WORDS: faith community nursing, health ministry, hospice, palliative care, palliative care doula, serious illness By Judy C. Lentz AN INNOVATIVE ROLE FOR FAITH COMMUNITY NURSING Palliative Care The understanding that palliative care could provide benefits to patients with serious illnesses before the last six months of life is a more recent phenomenon.

  • Services Delivered by Faith-Community Nurses to Individuals with Elevated Blood Pressure Victoria Monay,Carol M
    Public Health Nursing Vol. 27 No. 6, pp. 537–543 0737-1209/ r 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. doi: 10.1111/j.1525-1446.2010.00881.x SPECIAL FEATURES : C LINICAL CONCEPTS Services Delivered by Faith-Community Nurses to Individuals With Elevated Blood Pressure Victoria Monay,Carol M. Mangione, Alice Sorrell-Thompson, and Arshiya A. Baig ABSTRACT Objective: Our study describes the services faith-community nurses provide to a com- munity-dwelling sample of patients with elevated blood pressure. Design and Sample: The faith-commu- nity nurses completed a survey describing services provided to study participants at each patient encounter. We describe the type of contact and the frequency and types of services provided to these patients. From October 2006 to October 2007, we conducted a partnered study with a faith-community nursing program and enrolled 100 adults with elevated blood pressure from church health fairs. Measures: Patient demographics and faith-community nurse services provided. Results: Data from 63 of 108 (58%) visits to faith-community nurses made by 33 participants were collected from sur- veys completed by the nurses. The majority of the participants were female (64%), Latino (61%), with an average age of 59 ( SD 5 11) years and incomes below US$30,000 (83%). The most frequent services pa- tients received from faith-community nurses were blood pressure measurement (73%), hypertension-spe- cific education on dietary changes (67%), and supportive counseling (56%). Conclusions: Faith- community nurses represent a new method of supportive self-management for low-income individuals with a chronic condition who may otherwise have limited access to health services.

Preston: A Positive Student Nursing Experience Faith Community Nursing in Community/Public Health Education: A Positive Student Nursing Experience Current trends in healthcare emphasize a shift from acute care to community based settings. It is challenging to provide appropriate community clinical learning experiences as nursing programs compete for placements. Parish Nursing or Faith Community Nursing (FCN) is a specialized practice that has historically focused on disease prevention, health promotion and providing care within a faith community. Parish Nursing was initially recognized by the American Nurses Association (ANA) in 1998 with the publication of the first Scope and Standards of Parish Nursing Practice. Over time as the practice evolved to encompass different faith traditions, the title was changed to Faith Community Nursing (FCN) and the Scope and Standards was revised in 2005 and again in 2012 (American Nurses Association [ANA], 2017).
