“…Public theology also enriches the debate, as it shows solidarity 57,58 , compassion and the ethics of care 58 , underlining the fundamental role of those who provide SC -generally, people trained in theology 49,58 . Sometimes, patients and family members feel more comfortable discussing ethical decisions with those who provide this type of assistance than with health professionals, proving the importance of this specialty in the multidisciplinary team -an aspect usually disregarded in Brazil.…”

“…Due to its essentially interdisciplinary character and its ethical references, bioethics is the agglutinating field of the discussion about spiritual care as a public health issue. There are common concerns and approaches between the field of bioethics (global 54 , narrative 9,55 and protection 56 ) and public theology 57,58 . 54 underlines solidarity, vulnerability and precaution when discussing the contribution of global bioethics.…”

Resumo Reconhecido pela Organização Mundial da Saúde como essencial às boas práticas em assistência paliativa, “cuidado espiritual” é termo recente na saúde brasileira e carece de reflexão específica. A fim de diminuir tal lacuna, este estudo apresenta o estado da arte sobre a temática, traz breves orientações sobre como identificar necessidades espirituais e descreve quatro ferramentas úteis para esse cuidado. Após contextualização, reflete-se, de forma introdutória e com base nos campos da bioética e da teologia pública, se esse tipo de cuidado seria questão de saúde pública. O texto conclui com recomendações para subsidiar políticas públicas voltadas à implementação do cuidado espiritual na assistência paliativa no Brasil.

“…Research on the perspective of the Christian community in Indonesia on health services and health workers related to the concept of religious theology has never been done. A Christian theological review of the biblical concepts of faith and medicine has been carried out by Jacquart (2011), Keenan (1996), and Lange (2017). The research that has been done has never observed the perspective of the community directly, so the authenticity of this research is the first time that observations have been made in the community.…”

“…This misperception about medicine is the result of distortion as described by Jacquart (2011), Keenan (1996), andLange (2017). Medicine is a product of science created by humans so that it is contrary to the faith which references that by the stripes of Jesus (1 Peter 2:24b), healing must occur.…”

The use of drugs and the responsibility of pharmacists in the treatment process for the Indonesian Christian community face challenges in understanding biblical health doctrines especially in the use of drugs and the provision of advice by pharmacists. The view that medicine as a product of science is contrary to faith and belief in God's care for the health of the human body is a theological distortion. the pharmacist’s role is equated with relying on humans and not relying on God. This study assesses perspectives on medicine and pharmacists in the Indonesian Christian community. This research is a descriptive study using questionnaire. Respondents were randomly selected from all provinces in Indonesia following the proportion of the Christian population in the province. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were tested using the composite reliability (CR) method and Cronbach's alpha with a significance level of 5%. The questionnaire was assessed using a Likert scale and the results were classified into very good, good, and poor. This study shows the community's perspective on medicine still needs to be improved (32.6% very good, 40.6% good, and 26.8% poor). For Indonesian Christian community, the hesitation to use medicine is caused by the teaching that faith and God's promises in the Bible are sufficient to heal and maintain human health. While the perspective of pharmacists in the treatment process shows better results (45.4% very good, 36.2% good, and 18.4% poor).
