Background: Job stress greatly affects the physical and mental health of nurses. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between spiritual health and job stress among nurses working in selected hospitals of Yazd University of Medical Sciences and Health Services in 2020.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional and correlational study conducted in 2020 in Rahnemoun and Shahid Sadoughi hospitals in Yazd. The sample size was 203 nurses selected through random cluster sampling. Data were collected using the Pulotzin Wallison Spiritual Health questionnaire and the Tuft and Anderson Job Stress Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, Spearman, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallis correlation coefficient by SPSS24.
Results: The mean of nurses' job stress was (109.17 ± 28.66) and the mean of spiritual health was (92.58 ± 14.80). The relationship between job stress and spiritual health was statistically significant and negative (P-value < 0.001). There was a statistically significant relationship between spiritual health and marital status(P-value = 0.0002), age groups(P-value = 0.013), work group(P-value = 0.003)s and employment status (P-value < 0.001); and between job stress and gender (P-value < 0.001), marital status (P-value < 0.001), age groups (P-value < 0.001), work experience(P-value < 0.001) and employment status (P-value < 0.001).
Conclusion: In order to improve spiritual health, experts advise managers and supervisors to hold classes and seminars related to the positive effects of spiritual health regarding physical and mental health. Consequently, their job performance will improve.
