They should practice, based on evidence-based instructions and spiritual health model for reaching a sound heart [44,45].…”

Aim: Holistic nursing provide postural care by assessing clients and patients' bio-psycho-socio-spiritual reactions, which could harm spiritual health due to interruption in communications with God, self, people and nature. The purpose of this study is designing and validating clients and patients' spiritual nursing diagnosis of the Sound Heart Model.Methods: This is a "developmental research" with Sound Heart Model approach, which was done on students at the faculty of nursing and hospitalized patients of Baqiyatallah in 2016. The inductive propositions were extracted by using conventional content analysis, through interviews with clients and patients, their families and clinical nurses. Two focus group were used, besides the individual interviews to approve the validity of data. The religious evidence, were investigated systematically and deductively. The spiritual diagnosis based on religious evidence were compared with propositions stated by the participants, the list of nursing diagnosis of NANDA, and spiritual health assessment questionnaire (25 cases). 76 spiritual diagnosis were classified into four communicational domains. Applicability was assessed through two focused group discussions with the comments of 20 experienced nurses.Results: safety from divine wisdom, neglecting and forgetfulness of God in healthy clients, and the frustration of God's mercy with fear, suspicion, future anxiety, sadness of losing health in patients, were the most important spiritual nursing diagnoses. Disruption of communication with God causes disturbance in other person's communication. Conclusion:The Sound Heart Nursing Care Model provide postural care at all levels of prevention. Failure to pay attention to the spiritual problems affects physical, mental, and social health.

proper patient's spirituality and health in many domains; physical, mental, physiological and behavioral health statuses. In the physical domain, it will aggravate hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, chronic body ache, premenstrual syndrome, migraine and cluster headaches. While in the mental domain it will exacerbate anxiety, insomnia, depression and low self-esteem. Although in the physiologic effects, it will worsen metabolism, rate of breathing, blood pressure, muscle tension, heart rate and increased brain waves. Whereas in the behavioral domain, it will increase drug abuse, alcohol consumption, smoking addiction, and increase destructive behavior [14][15][16].There are many barriers for physicians to practice spiritual medicine including; lack of physician time, experience, and suspicion of the role of physician in spiritual medicine respectively (71%, 59%, 31%) [17]. Spirituality vs. ReligionSpirituality is a multifaceted, multidimensional human experience that includes religious and nonreligious. Spirituality has three components; cognitive, experiential and behavioral dimensions (Figure 1). The cognitive is the mental framework, which consists of meaning, purpose, truth beliefs and values [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29].Experiential is the quality of an individual's inner resources which consists of hope, love, connection, inner peace, comfort, support, the ability to give and receive spiritual love, and the types of relationships [26][27][28][29].Behavior perspectives are the way a person externally manifests individual spiritual beliefs and their inner spiritual state [16,[30][31][32].

“…This notwithstanding, all components of care have increasingly become associated with the discourse of 'patient-centredness', aimed at respecting autonomy and individual choice (Wright, 2004), acknowledging that 'one size does not fit all'. In pursuit of high quality personalised spiritual care, Stoll (1979) documents the way in which nurses have in the past been advised to construct a spiritual history of their patients by questioning them about their understanding of 'god', hope and the significance to them of faith practices. The idea that spiritual values can be neatly and conveniently identified, categorised and responded to in ways similar to those of disease diagnosis and treatment, is now acknowledged as problematic, although vestiges of this can still be traced within the 'audit culture' that now dominates UK health care delivery (Peberdy, 2000).…”

Journeying with Morrie: Challenging Notions of Professional Delivery of Spiritual Care at the End of Life

The spiritual welfare of dying people has in recent years moved from the domain of religion to become the concern of health care professionals, particularly as part of the ideal of holism that underpins palliative care. Professional delivery of spiritual care incorporates the features of assessment, control and treatment which may involve varying degrees of intrusion into the patient's deeply personal inner self. Using a case study approach, this article explores meanings of spirituality and understandings of what is meant by the term 'spiritual care'. It argues that biographical and community approaches to spiritual care of dying people may be more congruent with the concept of the 'whole person' because this support is rooted in an intimate contextual knowledge of the dying person by the caregiver. This challenges the dominant discourses of professional expertise to embrace informal personal and collective competence in this important aspect of end of life care. Keywords: community; dying; palliative care; spirituality; spiritual care2 Introduction This article discusses the concept and practice of spiritual care in relation to those who are dying. It adopts a case study approach to explore meanings of spirituality and different types of spiritual needs in light of an increasing emphasis on the 'expert' delivery of spiritual care by the helping professions (for example, nursing, social work and counselling). The first section considers a broad literature that seeks to uncover what the term spirituality means and reveals that there is no consensus on its conceptual clarity. The next section explores spiritual care as active and applied, drawing mainly on the nursing canon that has influenced debate on this topic with its dominant focus on professional practice, particularly with respect to patients at the end of life. This will be followed by narrative that introduces Morrie to give the reader a sense of his life and his dying and my role within both. The last two parts of the article will draw together key elements of the case study to suggest that the biographical components of spiritual care may mean that, for some, this can only be successfully provided by those who have intimate and longstanding connections to the dying person. This essentially relational and ontologically based perception of spiritual care may present challenges to health care professionals whose relationship with their patients is inevitably instrumental and institutionally directed by virtue of the 'sick predicament' of the patient, placing them, as professionals, in an only brief and transitory spiritual stakeholder role (Wright, 2004).
