Fu Jen Catholic University Hospital, led by Vice President Sr. Mariola Stawasz of the Pastoral Care Department, advances holistic spiritual care through four pillars: clinical services, teaching, research, and innovation, aiming to "create a hospital with soul." Spiritual care providers proactively visit inpatients and ICU patients using a five-dimensional framework (meaning/value of life, hope, love, forgiveness, and relationship with the Sacred). The team is Taiwan's only one using the SWBS-T (Spiritual Well-Being Scale-Taiwan) Chinese version pre/post spiritual conversations, with average improvement of 16-18.7 points. Teaching: (1) Trained 266 seed teachers (14.3% of staff, 92.3% satisfaction); (2) Cooperation with Prof. Pin-Chiang Yeh adapting CPE course (8-15 hours) for FJU medical student communication skills; (3) 2021-2024 NSTC humanities education grants. Innovation: Taiwan-first spiritual care system + electronic medical record signing. The 2024 3rd International Spiritual Care Symposium hosted 345 attendees plus 75 online with 89 submissions. Sr. Mariola Stawasz won the 2024 Foundation Service Award for Medical Devotion as "Pioneer of Spiritual Care in Taiwan."
