Background and Objectives: Admission to a hospital increases individuals’ vulnerability and their consequent needs for religion and/or spirituality. The purpose of this research was to design the title and objectives of the spiritual care course for clergymen.
Methods: This qualitative study employed the integrated review method. The objectives and title of the course were developed and validated using the integrated review method, with the final model created using the Delphi technique and group discussions with experts. The statistical population included clergymen in health, as well as articles and books published between 2014 and 2022. Articles related to the educational objectives and title of the spiritual care course were first collected. Out of a total of 123 articles, 32 were selected. The course, designed through the Delphi method, was then subject to survey, modification, and review by a panel of experts consisting of 13 clergymen. The title and objectives of the spiritual care training course were formulated based on the research findings.
Results: The findings revealed 13 objectives and 15 titles for the spiritual care training courses.
Conclusion: The objectives and headings of this model are based on both international and local cultural approaches, which can address the concerns of officials in the Ministry of Health, Treatment, and Medical Education regarding specialization in service provision.
