The aim of this study is to determine the effect of workshop training method on the nurses' knowledge and skill of CPR. Material & Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 140 nurses of Zabol University of Medical Science in a single group (before and after and three months after the training workshop) .The data collection tool was the knowledge questionnaire including personal information and 50 questions which were designed based on valid sources. To assess the nurses' practical skills, a checklist was used by observing CPR performance on the manikin (manikin CPR performance). The tools were completed for all the nurses before and after the training workshop and three months later. After their collection, the data were converted to digital codes and entered SPSS computer software and were analyzed based on descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The average score of nurses' level of knowledge and skill after educational intervention had a significant difference with the average score of their level of knowledge and skill before training (p<0.05). Conclusion: Workshop training method on CPR can be useful and effective in the nurses' knowledge and skill.
Introduction: Spiritual care is an important concept in nursing, and there have been different definitions for it; however, in order to address the issue of care, there is a need for a common understanding of this concept. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to analyse the concept of spiritual care in nursing.Material and methods: the concept of spiritual nursing care was analysed using a hybrid model, which consists of three phases of theoretical, field work, and final analysis. In the theoretical phase, related articles were reviewed in valid databases from 2000 to 2019. In the field-work phase, in-depth and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 participants using a purposive sampling method. Finally, the final analysis was performed by combining the two previous phases. Results:The results of the final analysis showed that spiritual care is a kind of planned and responsible care through understanding emotions, and psychological and religious needs, which is formed through a trust and empathy-based relationship to solve the patient's problems and focuses on maintaining patients' dignity and respect and establishes a kind of balance between different physical, mental, and social dimensions of the patient. Conclusions:The results of the current study help to clarify the concept of spiritual care, and in turn provide us with a holistic view of the concept and better understanding of its use in research and practice; however, it is recommended that further studies are carried out in other medical centres in the country to clarify all aspects of this concept.
