• 芬蘭一位名為Katie Eriksson的護理學家，她提出「關懷理論」，即照護的核心應該是愛和慈悲，而非僅僅停留在技能的層面。真正的照顧者應擁抱受苦者的痛苦，幫助提升他們的尊嚴。照顧不只是身體上的協助如擦澡、翻身，更多的是心理和精神上的支持，去理解受苦者內心深處的需求，甚至面對死亡的恐懼。「OMSORG」意為擁抱痛苦，提醒照顧者需要勇敢和善意，去引導受苦者釐清內在的疑惑，並接受現狀。每個人來到地球前都會制定「受苦劇本」，這並非陰暗的報應，而是一種靈魂的學習和成長。照顧者不僅是幫助者，也是這場受苦旅程的「共同出演者」，雙方彼此學習並達到靈魂的提升。人類就像「俄羅斯娃娃」，外層為身體，中層為心，最內層為靈。健康不僅僅是身體健康，而是身、心、靈的全方位平衡。照顧者在這個過程中與病人建立深層聯繫，才能真正幫助他們重拾尊嚴，找到生命的意義並促進靈魂的成長。
  
  Katie Eriksson, a Finnish nursing theorist, proposed the "Theory of Caring," which emphasizes that the core of care should be love and compassion, rather than just technical skills. A true caregiver embraces the sufferer’s pain and helps to restore their dignity. Care extends beyond physical assistance, like bathing or repositioning, to providing psychological and spiritual support by understanding the sufferer's deep inner needs and even their fears of death. The term "OMSORG" means embracing suffering, reminding caregivers of the courage and kindness required to guide sufferers in clarifying their inner doubts and accepting their reality. Each person, Eriksson suggests, creates a "suffering script" before coming to Earth, not as a form of retribution but as a path for the soul’s learning and growth. Caregivers are not merely helpers; they are "co-actors" in the journey of suffering, where both parties learn and achieve soul growth. Humans are like "Russian dolls," with the outermost layer as the body, the middle as the mind, and the innermost as the spirit. Health is not only about physical wellness but a balanced integration of body, mind, and spirit. Through this journey, caregivers form a profound bond with patients, helping them to reclaim dignity, find meaning in life, and foster spiritual growth.
