“…This may be due to the disruption of daily routines, social isolation, uncertainty, and negative effects on physical health. Quarantine has had a significant impact on interpersonal relationships due to the lack of physical contact, increased reliance on technology heightened emotional stress, and the erosion of social skills [26,27,28,29]. The absence of physical touch, the limitations of digital communication, the emotional strain, and the decline in social skills have all contributed to the challenges faced by individuals in maintaining healthy and fulfilling relationships during this period.…”

Due to the outbreak of coronavirus disease, 83% of households experienced a reduction in income, more than 25% of Filipinos reported anxieties, and 66,000 deaths from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been reported. With the pandemic, nurses are an essential part of the healthcare industry. With the notion that nurses now handle a variety of patients, sometimes nurses neglect their health. This study bridges the gap between the nurses’ health situation when afflicted with COVID-19, and how they can manage their health in terms of stress management, interpersonal, and spiritual aspects while in quarantine. Thus, using the quantitative design, this study determined the extent of impact of quarantine on the stress management, interpersonal, and spiritual growth of nurses who were infected with COVID-19 and experienced quarantine in Negros Occidental when they were taken as a whole and grouped according to age, sex, civil status, areas of the hospital, and types of quarantine facility. Also, it investigated on the relationship between the demographics and the impact of quarantine on stress management and interpersonal and spiritual growth of nurses. The study determined a very great extent of quarantine impact on the stress management, interpersonal, and spiritual growth of nurses who were infected with COVID-19 and experienced quarantine in Negros Occidental. There was a significant relationship for age and areas of the hospital on the impact of quarantine; while there was no significant relationship for the variables sex, civil status, and types of quarantine facilities on the impact of quarantine. It is essential to recognize that stress is a subjective experience that varies from person to person; it is crucial for policymakers and healthcare providers to recognize the importance of addressing the mental health needs of individuals in quarantine facilities. At the same time, the administrators should recognize and address different challenges encountered by nurses in quarantine to ensure their well-being.

“…Religiosity and spiritual beliefs are recognized as significant factors in alleviating DA [14]. Religiosity is defined as "an evaluation of the positive, personal, and social consequences of religious practices, coupled with the belief in the existence of a supreme being" [15]. Some prior studies indicate a negative correlation between religiosity and spirituality with DA in nurses [12,16].…”

This systematic review sought to compile evidence on the connection between religiosity and spirituality and death anxiety (DA) among nurses. A comprehensive search was conducted on Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science databases using keywords derived from Medical Subject Headings, including "Death", "Death Anxiety", "Nurses", "Spirituality", "Religiosity", and "Religion", spanning from the earliest available data to March 1, 2022. The quality of the included studies was evaluated using the Appraisal tool for Cross-Sectional Studies (AXIS tool). Two researchers independently performed data extraction and quality assessment for the included studies. In the present study, six relevant articles were included. According to the results, 37.46% of nurses identified as Catholic, and 22.70% as Protestant. Two studies explored the relationship between religiosity and DA in nurses, revealing a significant negative correlation. Four studies investigated the association between spirituality and DA among nurses, with three of them indicating a significant negative relationship. However, one study demonstrated a significant positive correlation between spirituality, spiritual care, and DA among nurses. Overall, the majority of studies suggested that religiosity and spirituality have a negative association with DA in nurses. The findings of this study contribute to a better understanding of DA and its related factors in nurses. Additionally, designing interventions that focus on religiosity and spirituality may help reduce DA in nurses, thereby improving patient care. Therefore, future researchers are encouraged to design well-structured interventions based on religion and spirituality for nurses dealing with DA.
