“…The concept of spirituality in the context of delivering nursing care has been analysed abundantly (1)(2)(3)(4). In these studies, spirituality in nursing is seen as a search for answers to existential questions and as an individual's ongoing and varying relationship with the sacred or transcendent (5).…”

Learning and developing an understanding of the spiritual needs of older people with dementia is challenging. The nurses offered person-centred, spiritual care, to people with dementia from a variety of perspectives, which is important in the provision of comprehensive care. There is a need to find usable tools to help nurses to learn and understand the individual spiritual needs of older people with dementia and to explore how these older adults experience having their spirituality supported within their nursing care.

“…Also, attendance at religious services is associated with lower cancer related mortality [ 140 ]. Ideally, religion and spirituality can aid patients in identifying positive coping skills, managing grief [ 141 ], finding new goals, redefining hope, and realizing purpose and peace in suffering [ 142 ]. In our study, a majority of patients (68%) felt that religious and spiritual counseling was important to their cancer care which is consistent with one study by Balboni et al showing a majority of patients (88%) considered religion important to their care [ 143 ].…”

Evidence regarding opinions on integrative modalities by patients and physicians is lacking. Methods. A survey study was conducted assessing how integrative modalities were valued among hematology/oncology patients and hematologists and oncologists at a major tertiary medical center. Results. 1008 patients and 55 physicians were surveyed. With the exception of support groups, patients valued nutrition services, exercise therapy, spiritual/religious counseling, supplement/herbal advice, support groups, music therapy, and other complimentary medicine services significantly more than physicians (P ≤ 0.05). Conclusion. With the exception of support groups, patients value integrative modalities more than physicians. Perhaps with increasing education, awareness, and acceptance by providers and traditional institutions, integrative modalities could be equally valued between patients and providers. It is possible that increased availability and utilization of integrative oncology modalities at tertiary hospital sites could improve patient satisfaction, quality of life, and other clinical endpoints.

“…Except for the individual spiritual needs, while Petersen conducted a concept analysis of spiritual care for a child with terminal-stage cancer and identified one attribute as strengthening the relationship of the child with others [4]. Additionally, Ramezani, et al identified the concept analysis of spiritual care in terms of the practice skills as healing presence [5], therapeutic use of self, intuitive sense, exploration of the spiritual perspective, patient-centeredness, meaning-centered therapeutic intervention, and creation of a spiritually nurturing environment.…”

“…Petersen conducted a concept analysis of spiritual care for a child with terminal-stage cancer [4], and a literature search was conducted from inception to the end of 2012 by using the CINAHL, ATLA, and PubMed databases. Results identified six attributes: assessing spiritual needs, assisting the child to express feelings, assisting the child to find meaning, aiding the child to find hope, helping the child to be remembered, and strengthening the relationship of the child with others.…”

This article is to review literature from 2011 to 2015 on spiritual care in nursing using CINAHL. In this article, the keywords "systematic review," "spiritual care," and "nursing" were used to search the CINAHL database. Initially a total of 19 articles were identified; however, 11 papers were reviewed after excluding the inappropriate articles following six categories as the definition of spirituality, concept analysis of spiritual care, spiritual assessment, spiritual care on the clinical settings, ethical issues, and nursing education. In conclusion and suggestions, spiritual care should assess from generic to specific aspects, and develop the comprehensive assessment steps for spiritual care in nursing. Additionally, the mixed method is suggested to study spiritual care in nursing for obtaining consistent findings and exploring the patients' unique spiritual experiences. Nursing researchers should apply the manual therapeutic life review interventions for existential and religious domains as the evidence-based interventions for spiritual care in the different care units to generalize the validity of these spiritual interventions.
