The integration of spiritual practices in nursing care /
Series: Philippine Journal of Nursing. 84 : 2, page 4-13 Publication details: July-December 2014Subject(s): Summary: The intent of this study was to describe the integration of spiritual practices in nursing care that could be a basis for developing a framework of nursing care management. The paper utilized a mixed method research design: qualitative approach was used through focused group discussion (FGD) and interviews with staff nurses affiliated with certain tertiary hospitals in Metro Manila selected through purposive sampling. Thematic results from the responses shared by the key informants were processed. These results consisted of the following: (a) Interpersonal relationship with God and personal outlook on values; (b) Caring for the Spirit; (c) Actualization of spiritual core; and, (d) The mission of meaningful service. A spirituality tool was developed based on the emerging themes and was given to each nurse. The tool revolves around seven elements: general manifestation in rendering spiritual care, specific manifestations in rendering spiritual care, recipients of spiritual care, appropriate time in rendering spiritual care, venue for rendering spiritual care, relevance/meaning of spiritual care and institutional support. The statistical treatment of the spirituality tool shows that nurses practice/occur with the spiritual care at all times. The framework on the Integration of Spiritual Practices in Nursing Care points to God's presence in the midst of relational presence, integral presence, spaces of presence and moment presence. Hence, this study puts emphasis on the integration in nursing care of spiritual practices where God;s presence is visible.Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
