Spirituality On The Assistance Practice Meaning: Multi Professional Team Perspectives

The spirituality has been pointed as a valuable resource that helps the human being to face the sickness process. This study aimed to investigate the opinion of a multi professional health team about the spirituality on the health-disease process and; verify the multi professional health team perspectives about the spiritual care integrated to the health assistance. It is about a descriptive research with qualitative approach, developed with members of a school-hospital multi professional team, in João Pessoa city – PB. Analyzed qualitatively, through content analyze technique, in the thematic modality, proposed by Bardin. From the analyzes of empirical material obtained through subjective questions, emerged two thematic categories: spirituality with religiosity interface, transcendence, life style and culture; spirituality influence on the promotion of comfort to the patient and on the professional ethical posture. It was understood in this study that the multi professional team understanding about the spirituality is ambiguous and permeated by fragile significances. The professionals don’t feel prepared and comfortable yet to insert this therapeutic modality in their routine, however there is a more exponential perception of this gape in the assistance plan. \udDescriptors: Spirituality.
