As a member of the governing board, administrator, or educator in a health care agency, you are responsible for helping nurses to establish holistic care. A plan is offered based on theories, supporting research, and the study of spirituality in healing. This is not to be considered the final answer, but to provide one perspective which may serve as a common basis for developing a coordinated plan most appropriate to your agencys situation.
The author?s purpose is to address the issue of establishing the nursing practice of holistic care in hospitals and similar health care agencies as well as in educational programs. The theory of spiritual care for nursing is offered to provide guidance and structure to this effort. Incorporating spirituality into one?s own nursing practice or for the entire nursing staff at an agency is probably a most pressing and intangible task facing nursing today. This text is not the fi nal answer, but is offered to provide one perspective that may provide direction for an ecumenical approach and serve as a theoretical guide for nurse educators in teaching spiritual care to nursing students as well as for nursing leaders and their nursing staff in developing a plan of implementation appropriate to an individual agency.

The purpose of this tool, the Nursing Communication Observation Tool (NCOT), is to assist you as an observer in collecting and analyzing data about interpersonal communications. It is patterned after the work of Robert Freed Bales of the Center for the Behavioral Sciences at Harvard University and designed for observing any interpersonal communication occurring in nursing practice contexts in which you, as a nurse, interact with your clients, peers, leaders, and colleagues of nursing and other health care professions.
The purpose of this book is to present cohesive, introductory information, drawn from the disciplines of speech communication, interpersonal communication, and nursing. It is proposed by the author to establish a benchmark of holistic and humanizing theoretical orientation for interpersonal communication between nurses, clients and others which is appropriate in all areas of nursing practice, education and research.

The Job-Communication Satisfaction Importance (JCSI) questionnaire is designed to survey large groups of nursing and other health care personnel in a hospital or similar agency. Information about perceived satisfaction and importance of selected aspects of the task and people associated with health care employees' work provides an excellent data base for administrative decisions. For example, such information may identify educational needs of personnel, areas of conflict to be resolved, and changes needed in areas deemed important to the personnel.
Spiritual care involves listening for the frame of reference of the client (and their families, etc.) to determine how spirituality can be their support in health concerns. The nurses and other health care providers are encouraged to be aware of their own spirituality and hold fast to their own frame of reference. For a health care provider to impose one's own beliefs, values, etc. about spirituality is professionally and ethically inappropriate. The succinct role of the nurse is to recognize, respond, record, report, and refer, i.e., the 5 "Rs" of spiritual care.
