Abstract
Research indicates patient-centered care (PCC) has the potential to enhance patient outcomes and relationships within health care systems. Incorporating spiritual care (SC) into practice is 1 intervention nurse practitioners (NPs) can use to promote a PCC practice model and develop relationships and connections vital to SC. This descriptive study identifies a lack of education on SC as 1 barrier to incorporating SC in NP practice within a PCC model. Concepts for inclusion in education are suggested based on the findings.
