“…The care nurse, when taking on duty, should participate in the shift change meeting, read the occurrence book, check the emergency cart, visit the patients, and provide assistance, performing procedures that are exclusive to nurses, among other functions. The results of the present research are consistent with those of another study (14) , in which the care nurses had a work routine based on practical activities such as those cited.…”

Objectives: to know the meaning of the role of nurses in the hospital environment. Methods: this is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, whose setting was a university hospital in Minas Gerais with 50 nurses. Data were collected through interviews and analyzed according to content analysis, with the contribution of the Interface software from R pour les Analyzes Multidimensionalnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires. Results: three categories emerged: “Nurses’ daily work in the hospital environment”; “Work motivation as an influential factor in the meaning of work”; “The two faces of the meaning of work: pleasure and suffering”. Nurses attributed a positive meaning to their work. Final Considerations: three dimensions of the meaning of work were highlighted: individual, organizational and social. These influenced the professional, social, working and individual life of nurses.

“…In nursing practice, the integrated person model suggests that within each individual the dimensions of body, mind, and spirit are connected, with each dimension influencing the others. While spiritual care has been widely researched, some nurses can find it challenging to implement in their everyday practice (Clarke 2013;Clarke and Baume 2019). In 2021, a systematic review of the conceptual framework of spirituality in health care was published, arguing that understanding spirituality is an important topic for research, clinical practice, and health professional education.…”

“…In practice, for example, the demarcation between spirituality and religion is recognized as cause for problematic dichotomies in patient care (Pesut 2008). Furthermore, the lack of "precise" terminology in terms of the language used to define spirituality has impeding implications for nursing practice and education (Clarke and Baume 2019;McSherry et al 2004).…”

Spirituality is “sometimes just a hug”: A conceptual analysis from the perspective of nursing students

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objectives Definitions of spirituality abound; however, the importance of context and need for better understanding within health-care practice has been emphasized. In particular, the understanding of spirituality for nurses has been shown to have an impact both professionally and personally. Methods This study used a conceptual analysis to explore the understanding of spirituality by German-speaking nurses in an educational context. Results A total of 91 nursing students (83.5% female, 16.5% male) took the spiritual care course between January 2022 and January 2023. The majority of participants (n = 63, 69.6%) were in the 26- to 40-year age bracket, 50 (54.9%) identified themselves as Christian, 15 (16.5%) chose other, 12 (13.2%) atheist, 6 (6.6%) humanist or agnostic, and 2 (2.2%) Buddhist. A conceptual analysis of nursing students’ written responses to the question “What is spirituality to me?” was conducted. Two overarching categories were identified. The first category was titled “What aspects or characters are linked to spirituality?” and included 5 subcategories: people, life, experience, a sense of security, and capacity. The second category was titled “How is spirituality experienced, practiced and lived?” and included 5 subcategories: sometimes just a hug, to align one’s life with that purpose, to be content with myself, conscious attention to oneself, and demarcation from religion. These subcategories were interrelated to one another. Significance of results These findings have implications for how spirituality is introduced in nursing education.

“…Similar to Occupational Therapy, the Nursing profession has taken a long-term interest in concepts of spirituality in application (Clarke & Baume, 2019). In practice, Ramezani et al (2014) describe spirituality as the “cornerstone of holistic nursing practice” (p. 213).…”

“…In providing rationale for such a construct, Donesky et al (2020) note that "because nurses are regularly at the bedside, they have frequent opportunities to recognize spiritual needs that patients may not express during episodic visits of other team members" (p. 150). At a conceptual level, the work by Ramezani et al (2014), Clarke & Baume (2019) and Donesky et al (2020) does philosophically speak to a shift within the Nursing profession towards more holistic practice.…”
