Effectiveness of an Educational Intervention of Spirituality in Nursing Professionals Working in Critical Health Care Settings to Promote Spiritual Self-care.

Since its historical origins, nursing has been deeply linked to values and principles that give it a solid spiritual heritage. This spiritual connection has been the basis on which the profession has developed, allowing it to evolve without losing its fundamental essence.

In contexts of high emotional demand, such as critical care environments, professionals are faced with multiple spiritual needs that produce existential crises in the search for meaning and purpose, then spirituality acts as a source of strength that not only helps to face challenges, but also promotes greater satisfaction in their daily work.

Thus, the integration of spirituality in the workplace has demonstrated multiple benefits such as increased motivation and commitment, greater job satisfaction and significant improvements in mental and emotional health.
