Abstract
Purpose: This study investigated the degree of, and factors influencing the spiritual care among home healthcare nurses. Methods: The subjects were 168 advanced practice nurses working in 94 hospital-based facilities for home health care located in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, and Incheon Metropolitan City. Data were collected from January 14, 2019, to March 7, 2019, using structured questionnaires on spiritual care and related variables based on the literature. Data were analyzed by t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression analysis (stepwise) using SPSS Version 23.0 program. Results: The results showed that the degree of spiritual care of home health care nurses was 3.44 points out of a possible 5 points. Factors affecting nurses' spiritual care were spiritual well-being(𝛽=.36, p<.001), recognition of spiritual care as the nature of nursing(𝛽=.17, p=.016) and role of nurses(𝛽=.22 p=.002), regular-based education for spiritual care(𝛽=.23, p<.001), patients' discomfort with spiritual discussion(𝛽=-.18, p=.001), and nurses' experience in home health care area(𝛽=.14, p=.010), which explained 57.2% of the observed variation in spiritual care. Conclusion: This study suggests the need to develop regular-based education programs for facilitating spiritual care and strengthening home health care nurses' spiritual well-being and their positive perceptions toward spiritual care.
