UNIT6What does it feel like to help dying patients through their final days? Experience it through the eyes of hospice nurse Jill Campbell, who does her job with grace, compassion, and gratitude.1.Outside, it's noisy on this busy block of row houses in Baltimore. But inside one tidy living room, all is quiet except for the sound of a woman's raspy breathing. The patient is huddled in an easy chair under a handmade pink-and-blue afghan, a knit cap on her head and booties on her feet. She has trouble staying warm these days. Her cancer has returned with a vengeance and she has only a few weeks to life.Hospice nurse Jill Campbell kneels down beside her patient, listens to her breathing, and then checks her blood pressure. Campbell has already hauled in oxygen tanks, showed family members how to work them, organized the medicine, and assessed how her patient has been eating and sleeping.2.But now is a moment to connect one-on-one. Campbell wraps her hands around the woman’s hands and rubs them together to warm them. She looks into her face. “are you feeling a little better?” she asks softly.3.Getting to know her patients and helping them through the toughest time of their lives is what Campbell, 43, appreciates most about being a hospice nurse. “I don’t know of another position where you can do more for people,” she says.4.Her patients have all been told that they have six months or less to live. Rather than continue with often-difficult or painful treatments that probably won’t extend their lives, they have decided to stop trying for a cure. Instead, with the help of hospice care, they’ll focus on comfort and on living whatever they have left of their lives to the fullest ---usually in their own home.5.Being able to die at home is a major part of the appeal of hospice, but patients and family members may not see it that way at first. “A lot of people still view hospice as giving up and letting the disease in,” says Campbell. That’s why the decision to call in hospice care can be an incredibly difficult one for a family to make. Once they do, though, most patients and their families soon understand the value of having a team of dedicated professionals---including social workers, health aides, chaplains, and nurses---work together to provide not only physical but also emotional and spiritual support. 帮助即将离世的患者度过最后的时光会是怎样的感受呢?让我们借助吉尔·坎贝尔的所见经历这一切吧。

Unit 6 Text A
寻求临终护理
数十年前,大多数人在自己家中去世,但是医疗方面的进步已经改变了这一情况。

如今,大多数美国人在医院或是疗养院中度过生命的最终时光。

他们中有些人是为了治疗疾病进了医院,有些可能是选择长期住在疗养院。

越来越多的人在生命的尽头开始选择临终关怀。

死亡没有一个称得上“合适”的地点。

何况,我们死亡的地方,大多数情况下也并非我们可以决定的。

但如果有选择的机会,每个人及其家属,都应该考虑究竟怎样的临终护理最为适合,在哪里可以享受到这样的关怀,家人和朋友能否提供帮助,以及他们应该如何支付相应的费用。

医院及疗养院
64岁的George有充血性心力衰竭病史。

一天晚上,他因为胸痛被送入医院。

他与他最亲近的人事先便已决定,在任何情况下都要让医生使用最大努力来延续他的生命。

所以当他需要相应的治疗时,他选择了医院,因为那里有全天候工作的医生和护士。

医院提供一整套的治疗、检查及其他医疗照护。

一旦George的心脏出现持续衰竭,医院的重症监护病房(ICU)或冠心病重症监护病房(CCU)就可以提供及时的救护。

尽管医院有相关的规定,在有些情况下执行具有一定的弹性。

如果George的医生认为他的病情并没有因为治疗有所好转,并濒临死亡,他的家属可以要求更加宽松的探视时间。

如果他的家属想从家中给他带一些私人物品,可以向工作人员询问物品的尺寸限制或是是否需要消毒。

不论George住在ICU、CCU 还是两病床的病房,其家属都可以要求更多的私人空间。

在医院环境中,对临终病人来说,身边永远会有知道该如何照料他的医务人员。

这一点令病人及其家属得以安心。

已有越来越多的人在生命尽头的时候选择疗养院,因为在这里,护理人员是随叫随到的。

疗养院有时也被称为专业护理所,在临终护理方面有利有弊。

与医院不同,疗养院里并不是全天候都有医生在场。

然而,由于临终护理可以事先安排,在病人濒临死亡时,不需要事先咨询医生而开展照护。

如果濒死病人已经在疗养院住了一段时间,家属很可能已经和护理人员建立了一定的关系,因而与医院相比,这里的护理工作更具个性化。

如同在医院里一样,隐私也可能是个问题。

有需要的话,你可以询问是否可以安排更多与家人单独相处的时间。


对于需要临终护理的人来说,家可能是最熟悉的环境。

家属和朋友可以来去自由。

从精力、情感和经济的角度来说,居家护理对于家庭和朋友可以是一件艰巨的任务,但这样做也有好处,况且他们通常愿意承担这样的任务。

如果需要额外帮助,他们还可以选择雇用家庭护工。

为了在家中进行舒适护理,需要事先安排一些服务(如上门护士)和特殊设备(如病床和床边马桶)。

医疗保险也许只能支付由医生指定的服务和设备。

建议事先和医生商量哪些是病人在家中舒适护理所需要的。

如果临终的病人是从医院回到家里,有时医院的出院规划师,一般是社工,可以帮你做出院计划。

当地社区老龄机构也可能推荐其他渠道的帮助。

医生必须掌握患者在家的护理状况,他/她会安排新服务、调整治疗及按需开药。

为了使临终病人尽可能舒适,遵从医生的计划非常重要。

如果你认为一项治疗已经不再有用,应及时与医生沟通。

姑息治疗和临终关怀
医生为了希望治愈重症患者尽可能长时间提供治疗。

这些病人还会接受症状护理或姑息治疗。

例如,乔治伴随心力衰竭还有贫血症。

治疗贫血症可以改善一些困扰他的病症,也可以让他轻松做一些事情,比如自己穿衣服或者洗澡。

治疗贫血就是姑息治疗的一部分。

近来,姑息治疗这个词语不仅仅意味着治疗一些症状,在美国,如今姑息治疗常指那些提升患有致命疾病的人的生活质量的综合办法。

它为家庭成员提供支持,与临终关怀的概念非常类似。

在姑息治疗方案中,一个多学科健康护理小组与病人及其家属共同努力,为病人提供可能患有致命疾病所需要的任何支持,不管是医疗的、社会的、还是情感上的。

根据需要,健康护理小组可以由医生、护士、治疗师、顾问和社工等人组成。

姑息治疗可以由医院、疗养院、姑息护理门诊、其他一些专业诊所或家庭提供。

联邦医疗保险可以支付一部分治疗和药物的费用,退伍军人可以通过退伍军人事务部有资格享受姑息治疗。

私人医疗保险可能会支付一部分服务费用。

可以向医疗保险公司咨询相关的保险范围。

姑息治疗并不要求在绝症治疗与舒适护理之间做出抉择。

如果医生认为治疗对病人不起作用,并且病人只剩6个月的时间,这时就有两种选择。

一是将姑息治疗转换为临终关怀;二是继续姑息治疗,但侧重于舒适护理而不是医学治疗。

这就是杰克所面临的情形。

他从美国空军退役,70岁时被诊断患有慢性阻塞性肺部疾病。

随着疾病的进展,杰克的呼吸变得越来越困难,于是他希望尝试采用实验性治疗来缓解这种疾病。

杰克获得了由美国退伍军人卫生管理局所提供的姑息治疗。

在治疗肺部疾病的同时,他接受了舒适护理及战胜病魔所需要的情感支持。

该姑息治疗方案也在日常家庭事务及其他方面为杰克的妻子提供支持,更便于她在家照顾杰克。

有时,治愈性治疗可能不再有意义:它可能对患者没有任何帮助或者反而给患者带来不适。

临终关怀正是为这种情况而设置的。

准备接受临终关怀的患者明白,临床治疗已经不能治愈或缓解自己的病情。

在临终护理中,临终关怀类似于姑息疗法,它不仅为患者提供全方位的舒适护理,而且也为其家属提供帮助,但临终关怀并不进行治疗。

临终关怀是一种临终护理的方式,它并不局限于特定的场所。

它可以在两种环境下实施:一是在家里,一是在一些机构,如疗养院、医院,甚至是单独的临终关怀中心。

临终关怀汇聚了一个拥有特殊专业技能的团队,包括护士、医生、社工、牧师及经过培训的志愿者。

每个团队成员都与临终患者、照料人员及家属共同努力,为他们提供所需的医疗、情感及精神上的帮助。

团队中有成员会定期看望患者,并全天24小时保持电话联络,随时候命。

谨记一点:不进行针对于疾病的治疗并不代表放弃所有治疗。

以一个老年肿瘤患者为例。

如果医生觉得肿瘤对化疗不敏感,病人选择临终关怀,那么化疗会即刻停止,但其余治疗还将继续。

例如,如果此患者患有高血压,那他/她需要照常服用降压药。

临终关怀并不一定是最终决定。

比如,Delores 82岁的时候,发现她的肾功能正在衰竭。

她觉得自己足够长寿,生活幸福,不愿进行透析治疗,于是她开始接受临终关怀。

一周之后,她得知孙女怀孕的消息,随即改变主意,不再接受临终关怀,而是开始透析治疗,她希望有一天能够抱上自己的第一个重孙。

与Delores一样,现实幽默作家《华盛顿邮报》专栏作家Art Buchwald在81岁时拒绝医生建议的透析治疗。

2006年2月,他进入临终关怀中心,准备在几周内死于肾脏病。

但他的病情奇迹般地稳定下来。

当他确定死亡并没有迫近时,Art Buchwald离开了临终关怀中心。

他在玛莎葡萄岛度过了整个夏天,并于2007年1月离开人世。
