Abstract

This article explores the related issues of boundaries and dual relationships within health and social care chaplaincy. The article begins by noting a tension between an understanding of pastoral care as having unstated and flexible boundaries and the clear statements from professional bodies that boundaries help the effective functioning of caring and supportive relationships. In a discussion of boundary-setting issues in relation to the expectations of both patients and chaplains, the article touches on the use of social media, before looking in more detail at dual relationships. The article argues that, while chaplaincy boundaries may need to be flexible, an awareness of normal practice is vital, so that any extending of boundaries is done consciously. In relation to this, a number of trigger points are suggested. The article recommends that individual chaplains discuss boundaries within supervision, and that teams have clear policies and protocols which articulate expectations around team working. It further recommends that the profession develops more guidance around dual relationships, and that formal supervision standards are set and audited.

牧师关怀中的边界和双重关系
本文探讨了健康和社会护理牧师的边界和双重关系的相关问题。文章首先指出,对田园关怀的理解是有着不明确和灵活的界限,而专业机构明确表示,界限有助于关怀和支持关系的有效运作,这两者之间存在着紧张关系。在讨论与患者和牧师期望相关的边界设置问题时,这篇文章触及了社交媒体的使用,然后更详细地研究了双重关系。文章认为,虽然牧师的界限可能需要灵活,但对正常实践的认识至关重要,这样任何界限的延伸都是有意识的。与此相关,提出了一些触发点。文章建议牧师个人在监督范围内讨论界限,团队有明确的政策和协议,阐明团队工作的期望。它进一步建议该行业围绕双重关系制定更多指导,并制定和审计正式的监督标准。

期刊介绍: Health and Social Care Chaplaincy is a peer-reviewed, international journal that assists health and social care chaplains to explore the art and science of spiritual care within a variety of contexts. The journal was founded in 2013 through the merger of the Journal of Health Care Chaplaincy (issn:1748-801X) and the Scottish Journal of Healthcare Chaplaincy (issn:1463-9920) . It continues to be the official journal of the College of Health Care Chaplains and members of the society receive the journal as part of their annual membership. For more details on membership subscriptions, please click on the ''members'' button at the top of this page. Back issues of both previous journals are being loaded onto this website (see Archives) and online access to these back issues is included in all institutional subscriptions. Health and Social Care Chaplaincy is a multidisciplinary forum for the discussion of a range of issues related to the delivery of spiritual care across various settings: acute, paediatric, mental health, palliative care and community. It encourages a creative collaboration and interface between health and social care practitioners in the UK and internationally and consolidates different traditions of discourse and communication research in its commitment to an understanding of psychosocial, cultural and ethical aspects of healthcare in contemporary societies. It is responsive to both ecumenical and interfaith agendas as well as those from a humanist perspective.
