Abstract

Patients, particularly those who are Muslims have the right to obtain nursing care according to their values and beliefs. Nevertheless, in its implementation, those patients commonly have not yet received the care that they supposedly receive. Nurses who work in the hospitals that embrace Islamic values as their fundamental pillars of the health care deliveries, have not been able to implement the Islamic nursing care optimally. If the patients didn’t get comprehensive nursing care, including Islamic care, so they are will not heal well. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the Islamic nursing care delivery in hospital. A cross-sectional design was chosen to investigate the research question. A proportional sampling technique was used to approach the participants resulting a total of 51 nurses who work in in-patient units participated in the study. A checklist which had been validated was used to collect the data on the Islamic nursing care. This instrument consisted of 23 statements measuring nurse practice in Islamic nursing care. More than half of the nurses (64.7%) demonstrated insufficient level of the Islamic nursing care implementation, meanwhile, the rest (35.3%) were identified to have good level of implementation. The study indicated that not all nurses have implemented the Islamic nursing care optimally. In order to improve the nurse performance, it is suggested to supervise the implementation of the Islamic nursing care in the hospital.
