STATEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING

I understand that the ministry of Morning Light Christian Science Nursing Service includes providing Christian Science nursing services consistent with the theology of Christian Science, and therefore I understand and expect that this does not include medical involvement.

The care of the Christian Science nurse includes:

• Accepting a case with the expectancy of complete and immediate healing;

• Giving care that is consistent with the theology and ethics of Christian Science;

• Loving reassurance of God's tender care, ever-presence, and omnipotence; faithfully and consistently acknowledging man's spiritual perfection;

• Christian encouragement of an individual's expression of normal activity and natural vitality;

Reading to or with an individual from the Bible, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures and other writings by Mary Baker Eddy; also, additional literature published by The Christian Science Publishing Society;

• Communication: maintaining an ethical, moral, and loving manner in all communications with the patient, family, friends, Christian Science practitioner, and others; observing ethical and legal requirements with regard to private information about the patient;

• Surroundings: maintaining an atmosphere that is conducive to spiritual healing and supportive of harmonious care;

• Personal care and bathing: assisting with all necessary care to meet the needs of cleanliness and comfort;

• Mobility: assisting with mobility including assisting with standing, walking, moving, and settling with or without mobility aids or comfort items;

• Nourishment: preparing and modifying food; assisting with feeding; giving appropriate encouragement to eat;

• Cleansing/bandaging: cleansing, covering and bandaging, to provide for cleanliness, protection, support, and comfort;

• Instructing the patient or others in providing care for meeting individual needs;

• Being obedient to the laws of the land.

The care of the Christian Science nurse does not include:

• Making a medical diagnosis or prognosis;

• Assuming responsibility for making health care decisions for the patient;

• Administering medication, drugs or using medicated, herbal, or vitamin-based products and remedies;

• Using and administering medically oriented techniques or technology;

• Manipulation, massage, physical therapy;

• Intravenous or force-feeding;

• Assuming responsibility for a patient's financial or household business transactions;

• Intruding on the private relationship between the patient and the Christian Science practitioner, or between the patient and his or her family;

• Giving personal advice and counsel.

Fundamental to the ministry of a Christian Science nurse is an active, prayerful confirmation of man's innate spirituality and responsiveness to God's harmonious government. This spiritual witnessing undergirds each aspect of the care a Christian Science nurse renders.
