Abstract: (117 Views)
Background: Admission to a hospital increases individuals' vulnerability and consequent requirements for religion and/or spirituality. Religion and spirituality are two relevant but inequivalent concepts. Religion consists of a set of beliefs, rituals, and affairs that usually characterize a community's faith in a sacred power. The purpose of this research is to design the title and objectives of the spiritual care course for service providers.
Methods: This research was a mixed exploratory study (qualitative and quantitative) with text analysis and descriptive-analytical methods. First, the review of similar texts and sources published between 2012 and 2023, and after classifying and analyzing them, the final components and titles of spiritual care courses, including 32 components, are available to experts and experts for valid review and evaluation. The statistical community at this stage includes all medics, nurses, clergy, managers, and carers in the field of spiritual health in the country, and 13 people were selected by purposive sampling to reach the Theoretical saturation stage. By examining and revising the components by experts and specialists, the final components and titles of spiritual care courses were designed as 8 goals and 4 titles. To validate the components extracted from Lavshe's method (to convert qualitative to quantitative judgment) two quantitative validity indices (CVI) and validity ratio (CVR) were used.
Results: The minimum and maximum acceptable values were 0.80 in the CVR index and 0.77 in the CVI index. The research findings showed that out of 8 objectives, 7 goals, and 4 titles, all the proposed titles are approved and valid.
Conclusion: Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the designed titles and goals of spiritual care can be used as a guide for developing spiritual care training courses in medical centers and hospitals.
