BACKGROUND: Spirituality has been recognised as an essential aspect of patient care. AIM: To assess the greatest facilitators that would help to provide spirituality for paediatric end of life. Methods: Two hundred and fifty oncology nurses were surveyed using a spirituality and spiritual care rating questionnaire. FINDINGS: The greatest facilitators perceived by nurses were: believe in spirituality as a unifying force that enables one to be at peace with oneself and the world; listening and allowing patients time to discuss and explore their fears; and using art, creativity and self-expression; respect for privacy, dignity and religious and cultural beliefs of a patient. CONCLUSIONS: Many nursing-related facilitators to spirituality care were found. They need to be addressed and supported through education and training.
