灵性关怀在老年社会工作中的应用

The Application of Spiritual Care in The Social Work of The Elderly

当今世界,老龄化已成为不可逆转的趋势,对人类的发展进程产生了巨大影响。虽然近年来灵性开始受到关注,但在老龄化大背景下,就老年社会工作中灵性的具体应用还没有一个清晰的介入方法及理论框架。本文通过对老年社会工作下的灵性界定及介入阶段与路径的分析,探讨老龄化形式下的社会工作如何让灵性关怀成为一种常态。并从优势视角的角度进行灵性发掘,积极关注老人,社会工作者以及重要他人三者之间的互动,从而为灵性介入老年社会工作本土化提供一个切入点。通过讨论教育先行与人才培养,政策倡导和环境友好,试点探索和与时俱进这三个不同的层面,为老年社会工作中灵性关怀的本土化实践注入力量。本文将借此理论架构,为灵性常态化提供动力。
