Therapeutic Dimension

This paper proposes an integrated pastoral service model. I begin with a fundamental question, what kind of pastoral care is right for people who are traumatized? Pastoral care with the dimension of voice and words will certainly be very difficult for those who are unable to speak their wound experience. Because, trauma causes someone's memory and life to be fragmented, making it difficult for them to be open and tell stories. Therefore, integrated pastoral care between verbatim and psycho-physiotherapy can be an alternative for counselors dealing with those who have experienced trauma. This paper will begin with the reality of the wound that does not always allow anyone to speak verbally. Next, I will frame pastoral care which involves anesthetic-therapeutic dimension as an alternative. Finally, this paper will conclude with conclusions and reflections.

This paper investigates the health and welfare needs of students (n = 15,806) and the current service model in Catholic schools in the Ballarat Diocese of Victoria, Australia. Catholic schools use a service model underpinned by an ethos of pastoral care; there is a strong tradition of self-reliance within the Catholic education system for meeting students' health and welfare needs. The central research questions are: What are the emerging health and welfare needs of students? How does pastoral care shape the service model to meet these needs? What model/s might better meet students? primary health care needs? The research methods involved analysis of (1) extant databases of expressed service needs including referrals (n = 1,248) to Student Services over the last 2.5 years, (2) trends in the additional funding support such as special needs funding for students and the Education Maintenance Allowance for families, and (3) semi-structured individual and group interviews with 98 Diocesan and school staff responsible for meeting students' health and welfare needs. Analysis of expressed service needs revealed a marked increase in service demand, and in the complexity and severity of students' needs. Thematic analysis of qualitative interview data revealed five pressing issues: the health and welfare needs of students; stressors in the school community; rural isolation; role boundaries and individualised interventions; and self-reliant networks of care. Explanations for many of these problems can be located in wider social and economic forces impacting upon the church and rural communities. It was concluded that the pastoral care model - as it is currently configured - is not equipped to meet the escalating primary health care needs of students in rural areas. This paper considers the implications for enhanced primary health care in both rural communities and in schools.
