Spiritual Care Needs of Pre-operative Patients and the Spiritual Care Practices of Surgical Nurses among Selected Hospitals : Implication to Spiritual Nursing / Raymond P. Lintag. - xv, 182 p. ; 28 cm.
This quantitative-descriptive-correlational study aimed to determine the spiritual care needs of pre-operative patients and the spiritual care practices of surgical nurses among selected hospitals in Pampanga and its implication to spiritual nursing. The locales of the study were limited to the pre-operative patients who will undergo major surgeries and nurses assigned in the surgical unit of the hospital. There were 25 patient respondents from the private hospitals and 75 patient respondents from public hospitals, while 25 nurse respondents came from private hospitals and 75 nurse respondents for the public hospitals. Specifically, the Spiritual Care Needs of Pre-operative Patients comprised of psychosocial needs, spiritual needs, and religious needs. Furthermore, Spiritual Care Practices of Surgical Nurses included general manifestation in rendering spiritual care, specific manifestation in rendering spiritual care, recipient of spiritual care, venue for rendering spiritual care, appropriate time in rendering spiritual care, relevance/meaning of spiritual care, and institutional support. The tallied, scored, tabulated, and analyzed data was based on the format required on the specific problems of the study. In the analysis and interpretation of the surveyed data, frequency count, percentage and mean were used in determining the profile of surgical nurses and patients' profile. The mean and standard deviation was further utilized to find out the assessment of patient's spiritual care needs of pre-operative patients and spiritual care practices of surgical nurses among selected hospitals in Pampanga, Philippines to spiritual nursing. Pearson's Product-Moment Coefficient of Correlation, t-test, and ANOVA were employed in answering the problem on determining the spiritual care needs of pre-operative patients and the spiritual care practices of surgical nurses among selected hospitals and the implication to spiritual nursing. The null hypothesis that there is no significant relationship between the spiritual care needs of pre-operative patients and spiritual care practices of surgical nurses among selected hospitals was rejected. Thus, the higher the needs the higher the practices should be delivered in terms of spiritual care. With respect to hypothesis testing, statistical analyses of data were conducted using the SPSS. Statistical values with significance level less than or equal to 0.05 were considered significant, thus, accepting the hypothesis while those greater 0.05 were interpreted as not significant, hence, would warrant the failure to reject the null hypotheses. Also the result revealed that spiritual care needs of the pre-operative patients were evidently observed among them while the spiritual care practices were obviously being practiced. In view of the foregoing study, the following specific recommendations were offered. Spiritual care needs should be strongly assessed in particular with the pre-operative patients to grant necessary measures of spiritual care from the nurses respectively. A continuous monitoring on the practices of nurses in terms of spiritual care should be documented and controlled by the nursing office. A focus group discussion among nurses may be necessary to sustain this activity in the bedside. Formulate a nurses' checklist/assessment tool that is related to spiritual care needs which includes psychological needs, spiritual needs, and religious need so that nurses can utilize the form and attend the needs of the patients appropriately. Let the nurses attend training and seminars related to surgical and spiritual nursing or if the hospital can provide further professional education so that they can be more competent in rendering quality nursing care. Nurses should explain and elaborate to the patients about spiritual care to the patients so they can fully understand, participate, and appreciate the spiritual care practices preoperatively. Nursing administrators should integrate and implement the spiritual nursing to their respective institution so that spirituality in the nursing profession will take its advancement. Nurses should not render spiritual care practices as if those are requirements. Instead, they should execute those wholeheartedly so they can fully apply spiritual nursing. A qualitative approach may be considered to further explore this study.
