Dear Luciano,

I'm a practicioner in teaching spirituality in nursing, e. g. at DHBW Baden-Württemberg Stuttgart (Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University Stuttgart).

The students are very interested in the topic. See e. g.:

Give a comprehensive understanding of what is meant by spirituality, its connection to health and wellbeing and how to deliver spiritual care.  Use methodical teaching to prepare students to assess patients spiritually.  Educate students to recognize and act on spiritual cues.  Keeping a respectful and therapeutic relationship and sensitive communication can assist students to discover what is significant to the client.  Make spiritual assessment and interventions more obvious in the clinical practice.  Have students finish a spiritual assessment as a piece of the nursing admission history.  Discuss spiritual concerns in pre and post-conference.  Teach students what has been identified as meaningful spiritual interventions such as: care, comfort, coping, connectedness, listening, reassurance, presence, prayer, religious worship and referral for chaplaincy services.  Communicate cognitive therapies that can be used for spiritual interventions: mindfulness, reflective reading, art and music.  Promote a calm and restful healing environment as part of spiritual care such as allowing patients to see a garden, feel pets, watch flowers bloom or look at beautiful paintings.  Implement graduate nurse residency programs to increase skills and comfort of the novice nurse that includes the significance of spirituality.
