This phenomenological study was aimed at understanding how women with end stage renal
disease undergoing hemodialysis want nurses to address their spirituality. Interviews were conducted
with 16 women from outpatient hemodialysis centers in a large Midwestern city. Eightythree
significant statements yielded meanings representing four theme clusters, highlighting how
these women prefer nurses to incorporate spirituality into their care: (a) displaying genuine caring,
(b) building relationships and connectedness, (c) initiating spiritual dialogue, and (d)
mobilizing spiritual resources. Participants expressed that nephrology nurses are uniquely positioned
to understand their individualized spiritual needs and implement spiritual care.
