Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the spiritual wellbeing of patients in coronary intensive care unit and their perception of nursing care as well as the factors affecting their spiritual well-being. Methods: This study was carried out in descriptive design. 113 patients hospitalized in coronary intensive care unit were included in the study. Data were collected using Patient Information Form, the Patient Perception of Nursing Care Scale (PPNCS), and the Spiritual Well-being Scale (SWS). Mann-Whitney U test and Spearmen correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results: The points obtained by the patients in the scales were determined as SWS mean total points of (96.80 ± 11.61) and PPNCS mean total points of (18.76 ± 13.37). A difference was determined between the age of the patients, the number of admissions to intensive care units, the length of stay in intensive care units, and the SWS (P < .05). A statistically significant weak negative correlation was found between the PPNCS and the SWB (r=-.348; p<.001). Conclusion: It was determined that the patients’ spiritual well-being levels were high and their nursing care perceptions were low. It was determined that as the perception of nursing care of the patients increased, their spiritual well-being decreased. Nurses can improve the quality of care by taking into account the spiritual needs of patients.
