Australian healthcare chaplains frequently support patients and families with Not For Resuscitation (NFR)/Do Not Attempt Resuscitate (DNAR) decisions. This study highlights their vital role in navigating these critical end-of-life care conversations.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare ethics
  • Clinical chaplaincy
  • End-of-life care research

Background:

  • Not For Resuscitation (NFR)/Do Not Attempt Resuscitate (DNAR) decisions are critical in healthcare.
  • The role of chaplains in supporting patients, families, and staff during these decisions requires further understanding.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the involvement of Australian healthcare chaplains in NFR/DNAR decision-making processes.
  • To explore chaplains' perspectives on their role in NFR/DNAR issues.
  • To identify differences in involvement between volunteer and staff chaplains.

Main Methods:

  • Survey of 327 Australian healthcare chaplains.
  • Data collection on involvement in pastoral interventions and assistance to clinical staff regarding NFR/DNAR decisions.

  • Analysis of differences based on chaplaincy status (volunteer vs. staff).

    • Main Results:

    • 24% of chaplains provided pastoral intervention to patients/families concerning NFR/DNAR decisions.
    • 18% of chaplains assisted clinical staff with NFR/DNAR decisions.
    • Noted differences in involvement between volunteer and staff chaplains.

    Conclusions:

    • Healthcare chaplains play a significant role in supporting NFR/DNAR decision-making.
    • Findings have implications for chaplaincy training and practice in end-of-life care.
    • Further research can refine the integration of chaplaincy services in critical care contexts.
