Abstract
Objective: Identify the perception of nursing professionals regarding spirituality in the context of care for cancer patients in the process of death. Methods: Integrative review in the databases of BDEnf, Lilacs, Medline, Pubmed from the Virtual Health Library, based on the descriptors spirituality, nursing, oncology, terminal assistance, terminality, making a final sample of 07 selected scientific articles. Data searches were carried out from January to March of 2019. Results: Spirituality for the nursing team was recognized in recognizing that the spiritual dimension in the care of cancer patients who experience the death process, provides more meaning to work, favors the intrinsic and extrinsic relationship, in addition to strengthening the bonds between professionals, patients, family members and companions. Final considerations: More investments in research are needed to prove the impacts that spiritual care can have on the patient and that there is a precariousness of trained professionals to develop this care.
