Nourishing the Spirit in Long Term Care:
Perspectives of Residents and Nursing Assistants
on Sources of Meaning in Residents' Lives
by Susan H. McFadden and Maryellen Hanusa
page 9-26

Abstract
"A model of spirituality guided construction
of interview questions that obtained information
from nursing home residents and nursing assistants
about opportunities to seek
meaningful connections within the self,
with other persons and the world, and with God.
Interpretive analysis of the transcripts
revealed that although nursing assistants
regard their caregiving activities
as significant sources of meaning,
residents do not share this perception.
Sources of meaning noted by both groups
included personal memories,
interactions with family and friends,
opportunities to help others,
treasured personal objects,
and religious beliefs and behaviors.
Implications for nursing assistant training are discussed,
particularly regarding ways to encourage nursing assistants
to attribute meaning to their work
by recognizing the ways residents experience spirituality."
