Abstract
ABSTRACT
Aim
This study examined the interplay among spirituality, self-efficacy and resilience in this context.
Design
A cross-sectional study.
Method
A total of 178 parents of children newly diagnosed with diabetes mellitus; the instruments used for data collection were the Parental Self-Efficacy Scale for Diabetes Management, The Arabic version of The Walsh Family Resilience Questionnaire and the Spiritual Perspective Scale.
Results
Self-efficacy had a significant positive direct effect on family resilience. Spirituality also had a significant positive direct effect on family resilience. Additionally, self-efficacy had a significant positive indirect effect on family resilience through its effect on spirituality.
Conclusion
The findings underscore the impact of spirituality and self-efficacy on a family resilience.
Implications for the Profession
Nurses should prioritise self-care and personal reflection to enhance their spiritual well-being. This can help them better understand and empathise with their patients' spiritual needs, allowing for more effective and compassionate care.
Impact
Upon the initial diagnosis of diabetes in a child, parents undergo a profound emotional and psychological upheaval. They are faced with the daunting task of managing their child's condition while also coping with their feelings of distress, uncertainty and fear. Amidst these challenges, factors such as self-efficacy and resilience play pivotal roles in determining how parents adapt to and navigate this new reality.
Nurses can use spiritual care to give parents a sense of meaning, purpose and hope, bolstering their self-efficacy and resilience.
Reporting Method
The relevant reporting method has been adhered to, that is, STROBE.
Patient or Public Contribution
In our research, data collection is assisted by nurses working in community-based settings.
