How to comfort lung cancer patients Three principles of psychological care for lung cancer patients

Experts point out that family members and medical staff should pay attention to the psychological care of lung cancer patients! The psychological problems of lung cancer patients change greatly from the moment the disease is diagnosed. More people feel despair and sadness, and very few people can face the occurrence of lung cancer calmly. During the treatment and rehabilitation process, the patient's psychological ups and downs are greater, which requires medical staff and family members to do a good job of psychological care for patients and help them to receive smooth treatment.

Psychological Nursing of Patients with Lung Cancer

1. Loneliness and suspicion: These patients are affected by family, social factors and the surrounding environment, and undergo surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other treatments at the same time. The pain and suffering they suffer during the process cannot be relieved, which often makes them feel lonely and helpless due to the loss of self-worth. They are extremely sensitive and suspicious of the words and deeds of medical staff. At this time, medical staff and family members should encourage and comfort patients, teach them how to distract their attention, listen to music, tell jokes to patients, etc., to relieve pain. If the pain cannot be relieved, drugs can be used under the guidance of doctors to relieve pain.

2. The more important point of psychological care for lung cancer patients is to make them feel warm. During the treatment process, many people suffer more psychologically than physical pain. Patients always feel that God is unfair to them, and the pain caused by treatment and disease will also make the patient's personality become irritable and restless. At this time, medical staff and family members need to give them warm care, talk to them in a gentle and caring tone, tell them that they are not fighting alone, let them face the disease actively, and cooperate with the doctor's treatment, which can effectively relieve pain and is also of great help to the patient's treatment and recovery.

3. Try to provide patients with a quiet and comfortable resting environment and ensure adequate sleep to relieve pain. Teach patients methods of distraction, such as self-relaxation, hypnosis, listening to music, etc. If the pain is severe and the above methods are ineffective, report it in time to relieve the pain and improve the patient's quality of life.

Psychological care for lung cancer patients is a very important task. The patient's psychology is changeable, complex and fragile, and requires careful care from medical staff and family members. Attention should also be paid to the development of diet and daily living habits, which are beneficial to recovery.
