“…In the second dimension, religious healthcare environment (6 items), it was emphasized how the nurse had to possess the skills to offer patients care in full respect of their cultural, human, and spiritual principles, such as to be able to experience the state of illness, its evolution and the outcomes of health treatments within a nurse/patient relationship characterized by support [ 44 ]. For example, in the items it is explored whether the patient needs counseling, support, human and spiritual help of a specific type carried out by members of the patient’s cult and how spiritual needs can be linked to the religion he professes.…”

(1) Background: In response to the impact of religious intervention on health outcomes and the importance of documenting how nurses experience the spiritual need of 392 hospitalized patients, it is vital to provide the nursing profession with instruments to evaluate these spiritual aspects. This study describes the development and validation of the Nursing Care and Religious Diversity Scale (NCRDS); (2) Methods: A two-step design was used for NCRDS translation and psychometric validation. The tool design was developed in the first step, while the psychometric characteristics were tested in the second step. An inductive study was conducted to test the validity and reliability of the NCRDS tool. The overall sample consisted of 317 nurses; (3) Results: The final instrument comprised 25 items in five dimensions. The construct validity indicated five dimensions. The face and content validity were adequate. Test-retest reliability displayed good stability, and internal consistency (Cronbach’s α) was acceptable (0.83); (4) Conclusions: Initial testing of the NCRDS suggested that it is a valid and reliable instrument to evaluate individuals in religious diversity, with five dimensions for evaluating the meaning of spirituality and individual belief, the religious healthcare environment, educational adequacy, spiritual and religious needs, and religious plurality.

“…This relationship is characterized by essential attributes such as compassion, connection, competence, communication, and presence. In the realm of healthcare, it serves as the cornerstone, providing the foundation for the delivery of quality care and the attainment of positive outcomes ( Grossman, 2022 ). Consequently, a diminished quality of work life for nurses has the potential to impact the nurse–patient relationship, subsequently affecting the caliber of care and patient outcomes.…”

BackgroundBalint group training has gained popularity in medical practices as an intervention designed to enhance the quality of life, well-being, and communication skills of healthcare practitioners. Psychiatric nurses, in particular, encounter distinct challenges and stressors inherent in their profession, necessitating the development and implementation of effective interventions to assist them in coping with the difficulties they experience. In this vein, the current study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Balint group training on quality of work life, resilience, and nurse–patient communication skills among psychiatric nurses.MethodsThirty psychiatric nurses from Razi Hospital in Tehran were recruited via the purposeful sampling method in 2022 and were randomly assigned to either the Balint group, consisting of eight weekly one-hour training sessions, or a control group. Participants completed the Walton Quality of Work Life Questionnaire, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and Communication Skills Scale before and after the intervention. The data were analyzed using the Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA).ResultsThe study found no significant differences between the Balint group and the control group in terms of quality of work life, resilience, and nurse–patient communication skills.ConclusionFindings suggest that Balint group training was not an effective intervention for improving the well-being and communication skills of psychiatric nurses. However, the study highlights the need for further investigation into the potential factors that may explain the lack of significant gains and offers insights for future research in this area.
