Spirituality has been recognized as important in the nursing profession. Recently there has been a resurgence of its importance in caring for patients. The literature demonstrates nurses do not see themselves as being competently prepared to handle the spiritual dimension. The issue may be a lack of intentional preparation of nurses in spiritual care competencies while in training, necessitating an exploration of the need for spiritual training for nursing students. The problem investigated in this research was not having intentional training in spiritual care competencies as a core course among nursing students at an urban college in the southeastern United States. The purpose of this primary qualitative single case study using a two-stage exploratory approach (semi-structured interview) with secondary quantitative descriptive data (demographic profile and Spiritual Care Competency Scale) was to explore the need for intentional nursing training in spiritual care competencies as a core course among self-acclaimed Christian Registered Nurses-Bachelors of Science in Nursing students. The goal was to explore the need for intentional training of nursing students in spirituality content by exploring the spiritual care competencies demonstrated by Christian Registered Nurses-Bachelors of Science in Nursing students while giving care to their patients. Eighty-eight participants, working in the hospital setting in the southeastern United States, were purposefully selected and surveyed, and a subset of participants (N=13) was interviewed for this study. The results of the self-reported Spiritual Care Competency Scale survey responses indicated the participants (N=88) viewed themselves as competent in caring for their patients. The interviews (n=13) resulted in six themes. The interviewees voiced their opinions for needed training in spiritual content to competently care for their patients holistically. Based on participants' responses, training could be achieved through various teaching strategies using the Actioning Spirituality and Spiritual Care Education and Training in Nursing model as the curriculum-guiding conceptual framework. The findings of this study may be beneficial to those interested in learning about spiritual competencies of nursing students in similar institutions. The findings provide insight into the need for more intentional training in spiritual competencies for nursing students to become competent professionals.
