Effects of spirituality on nursing care: Buddhism
Give this one a try later!
Healthcare beliefs often correlate with modern scientific advantages,
however, Buddhists may have certain cultural or religious mandates that
affect their ability to receive certain treatments. They may believe that
sickness can come from spirits invading their body, that if they do good
deeds they will have good health, and that healthcare should be provided
by persons of the same gender. Medications may be frowned upon and
they may be hesitant to take time off from work to take cared of medical
needs. Other implications for nurses include the need for observance of
dietary restrictions such as the practice of fasting and the avoidance of
alcohol and tobacco. Buddhists often view death as a stage of life and have
a quiet peaceful way of dealing with a family member's death.
