The spiritual care of patients is often overlooked in health care as many nurses are unprepared to provide competent, holistic care that addresses patients’ spiritual needs. Since undergraduate academic instruction prepares nurses for practice, innovative strategies that train pre-licensure nurses to care for the spiritual needs of patients are essential. A course needs assessment identified spiritual care as the most deficient competency for undergraduate psychiatric students. A three-phase quality improvement project designed to increase student awareness and practice of spiritual care included (a) development of a quality improvement plan, (b) implementation, and (c) outcome evaluation. Spiritual care was introduced into the Spring 2020 semester through didactic content and experiential practice. Additionally, an evidence-based spiritual assessment tool (i.e., HOPE questions) was integrated into the course to train students for use in clinical and simulation. Surveys were used to compare the 2019 and 2020 cohorts. Results showed a statistically significant increase in students’ perception of spiritual care competency after project completion. Future implications include the use of similar methods to improve spiritual care competency for pre-licensure nursing students.
