Euthanasia: The effects on healthcare professionalsBonsu, Nana 14 April 2022 (has links)
Abstract
Introduction and Background: Euthanasia has expanded significantly around the world over the past years. The debate concerning euthanasia has focused on the legalization, complex issues faced by the medical team, and perspective on assisted dying. Euthanasia known as assisted suicide is a deliberate medical procedure of intentionally withholding treatment or withdrawing life-support measures to end the life of a suffering patient.
Purpose Statement: To define euthanasia and its background as well as discuss the psychological and moral effects that surround the subject.
Literature Review: Five articles were selected. Quantitative and exploratory qualitative studies were obtained from existing literature, collection of data and statistics from relevant publications, peer-reviewed analysis, and original research papers with a focus on psychological and moral effects on participating, healthcare professionals.
Findings: Participation in euthanasia can have significant emotional and psychological impacts on participating healthcare professionals which can lead to long-term personal and professional effects. Some are unsupportive of this practice while some were supportive of it.
Conclusion: Despite the importance of this topic to medical practice, there are limited studies on addressing the psychological and moral impacts of euthanasia on participating healthcare professionals. Future research needs to explore how health professionals are negatively emotionally affected by their involvement in assisted suicide

A Strange Kind of DyingSitton, Christina M. 01 May 2014 (has links)
Fragmentation is a basic symptom of loss, and poetry naturally reflects this disjointing and destructive effect. The fracturing within the poetic form reflects the internal and repeated fracturing effects of trauma on one's own life. In this poetry collection, A Strange Kind of Dying, the speaker is bound by the question, "How is it that I can piece myself back together?" The collection of poetry is meant to help the speaker to find healing from the fragmentation through language. The work is intended to be an act of transfer, passing on one human experience to another.
The structure of the poems are eclectic in style to reflect the themes of fragmentation, disruption, and separation, making a strong connections between theme, content, and form. To achieve this aesthetic, I incorporate the formal and tonal qualities found within the poetic stylings of the lyric, elegiac, formalist, and confessional. By overlaying the above mentioned styles, tones, forms, and poetic concerns, I believe that my works contribute to poetry because it is a contemporary, poetic representation of the destroyed self. That is, it is an expression of how someone of today, in our modern, technological, and fast paced world, deals with the halting, and at time, paralyzing effects of loss, grief and trauma.

Reaching grief: public mourning made sacred through ritual, remembrances, and relationshipCedrone, Julie Lynn 23 May 2023 (has links)
The problem of grief has been described as the pandemic within the pandemic. This project believes that the church can provide a holistic response to the bereaved through inclusive events, education, and a devotion to embracing a changing spiritual landscape. Through memorial ritual, proactive education and supportive relationships, grief can be transformational and nurture a positive spirituality grounded in welcoming Christianity. This ministry is applied at the First Congregational Church in the town of West Boylston, Massachusetts, a small mill town outside of Worcester with a long history of communal loss prior to the loss of the pandemic. / 2025-05-23T00:00:00Z

Death in the Spanish fire services: a curriculum development studySantos, J.P.L., García-Llana, H., Pablo, V., Liébana, M., Kellehear, Allan 17 November 2017 (has links)
No / Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to understand the need and resources firefighters have to deal with
death and dying (D&D) that they encounter whilst on duty and to present a curriculum to support D&D
issues for firefighters.
Design/methodology/approach – A qualitative methodology involving focus groups was conducted
in two fire stations in Spain. The sample was 38 male participants with a mean age of 46 y/o
(range: 30-59 years) and an average tenure of employment of 18 years (range: 6-35 years). Data were subjected
to a thematic analysis. Dual coding of the transcripts in addition to member checking enhanced analysis.
Findings – Nine themes emerged: witnessing D&D during rescue operations;memories about D&D and trauma;
impact on firefighter’s families; decision-making process under stress; teamwork: protective and
self-support; inadequate D&D preparation and training; adequate technical and physical training preparation;
relationship between equipment, legal-moral obligation, and victims’ outcomes; communication issues: toward the
victim and/or their relatives. These themes were subsequently framed into three basic domains: personal impact
of D&D, team impact of D&D, and victim impact. Each domain, in its turn, is covered by three curriculum topics.
The curriculum’s pedagogy is primarily based on experimental-reflective activities during 16 study-hours.
Research limitations/implications – The absence of female participants. All fire stations were in cities
with no more than 150,000 inhabitants.
Practical implications – Individuals who take this curriculum will: increase their ability for self-care and
resilience; improve teamwork, leadership skills, and to decrease burnout; provide more effective care for
victims; provide skills to cope with compassion fatigue; reduced the levels of post-traumatic stress disorders.
Originality/value – Understanding firefighters’ needs with relation to D&D, and assessing the resources
available to mitigate these issues will provide a comprehensive approach to their education and promote health
both personally and professionally. A comparable curriculum or proposal has not been previously identified.
