Abstract

Background: Spiritual leadership integrates spiritual, moral, and humanitarian values to promote healthcare workers’ well-being and improve nursing service quality. Purpose: This study aimed to synthesize scientific evidence on the meaning, dimensions, and implications of spiritual leadership in nursing services. Method: An integrative literature review was conducted using the framework developed by Whittemore and Knafl, comprising problem identification, literature search, data evaluation, and data analysis and synthesis. Literature searches were performed in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar using the keywords “spiritual leadership,” “nursing,” “nurse manager,” and “healthcare,” guided by the PRISMA 2020 framework. Articles published between 2020 and 2026 were selected according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Of the 15,274 records initially identified, 25 articles met the eligibility criteria and were analyzed using thematic synthesis. Three major themes emerged: (1) the meaning of spiritual leadership in nursing services, characterized by meaningful work, spiritual values, and human relationships; (2) its core dimensions, including vision, hope/faith, and altruistic love, supported by spiritual, emotional, and social competencies; and (3) its implications for nursing service managers, including improved caring behaviors, work engagement, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, spiritual well-being, and nursing care quality. Conclusion: Spiritual leadership may foster meaningful work environments, positive organizational cultures, and high-quality nursing services. Its implementation may strengthen nursing service managers’ capacity to lead healthcare services in a humanistic and sustainable manner.

Abstract

Background: Empathy-based therapeutic communication is an essential component of patient-centered healthcare, contributing to therapeutic relationships, trust, care experiences, and patient satisfaction. Although evidence of the benefits of empathic communication continues to grow, findings remain dispersed across clinical settings and have not been comprehensively mapped. Purpose: To identify and map forms of empathy-based therapeutic communication and their reported associations with patient satisfaction across healthcare settings. Method: This scoping review was conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology and reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). A literature search was conducted in Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar for articles published between 2020 and 2026. Study selection was guided by the Population–Concept–Context (PCC) framework. Data were extracted, charted, and synthesized descriptively to map study characteristics, forms of empathy-based therapeutic communication, and reported outcomes. Results: A total of 28 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in the final synthesis. The findings identified several forms of empathy-based therapeutic communication, including nurse–patient communication, patient-centered communication, shared decision-making, empathic physician–patient communication, family-inclusive communication, and structured communication models such as AIDET. Overall, the included studies reported that empathic, responsive, and patient-centered communication was associated with greater patient satisfaction, increased trust in healthcare professionals, stronger therapeutic relationships, greater patient involvement in decision-making, and more positive care experiences. Conclusion: Empathy-based therapeutic communication appears to be an important component of patient-centered healthcare and is associated with positive patient satisfaction outcomes across diverse healthcare settings. The findings highlight the need to develop more standardized approaches to empathy-based therapeutic communication and to conduct further research examining their implementation and effectiveness across different clinical contexts.

Abstract

Background: Spiritual care is an integral component of holistic nursing care, helping patients maintain meaning in life, hope, and inner peace during treatment. However, its implementation in clinical settings remains challenging due to limited nursing competence, heavy workloads, and inadequate organizational support, which may prevent patients’ spiritual needs from being fully addressed. Purpose: To map the scientific evidence on the implementation of spiritual care by nurses in inpatient wards, the factors influencing its implementation, and its effects on patients, families, and nurses. Method: This study employed a scoping review approach based on the Arksey and O’Malley framework, as refined by Levac et al., and adhered to the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology and PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Literature searches were conducted across seven electronic databases for studies published between 2021 and 2025. Study selection was guided by the Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework, and the data were analyzed using thematic synthesis. Results: Of the 2,122 articles identified, 14 met the inclusion criteria. The included studies were conducted in various countries and employed quantitative, qualitative, and intervention designs. Thematic synthesis identified five themes: (1) therapeutic presence as the core of spiritual care; (2) spiritual communication as a key approach to its implementation; (3) barriers to implementation, including limited time, heavy workloads, inadequate training, and insufficient organizational support; (4) facilitating factors, including spiritual competence and sensitivity, clinical experience, training, and organizational support; and (5) the benefits of spiritual care for patients, families, and nurses. Conclusion: Spiritual care in inpatient settings is primarily delivered through therapeutic presence and spiritual communication. Its implementation is shaped by individual and organizational factors, with nursing competence, clinical experience, training, and organizational support serving as important facilitators. Strengthening nurses’ spiritual care competencies and improving institutional support may help optimize the delivery of spiritual care in inpatient settings.
