Christian Worldview Sample
Churches and other Christian institutions are credited as the largest non-governmental institutions that are involved healthcare provision worldwide. The church is involved in the funding of not only hospitals but care homes and even rehabilitation centers. The church believes that all human life is valuable and sacred andfor this reason Christian values and believes are usually incorporated in patient care in order to improve patient outcome(Rieg et al., 2018).
Christianity emphasizes on compassion, empathy and love as one of the greatest virtues a Christian should possess. Healthcare providers are expected to practice this virtue and incorporate it into service provision by providing high quality care to patients at an affordable cost regardless of their socioeconomic background. Theyshould also make an effort in creating a rapport with the patient, understanding their spiritual, physical and emotional needs in order to offer them wholistic care, reduce patient symptom burden and improve quality of life(Malenfant et al., 2022).
Patience and acceptance of others is another Christian faith value that can be employed in order to fully carter for a patient’s needs. These two values enables a healthcare provider to communicate efficiently with a patient, giving them time to express their views without judging them and cutting them short. These virtues also allows healthcare providers to work well as a team enabling them to delegate duties and collaborate with others in patient care improving patient outcome.
Integrity of healthcare workers is important in upholding patient doctor confidentiality. It also makes it possible for healthcare providers to handle their patients with respect and dignity. Integrity is important when managing financial resources of any institution thus in patient care integrity of those running the hospitals ensures that resources are readily available for smooth running of hospitals. This includes availability of drugs, human resource and infrastructure.
