Results: The results showed that the majority of nurses' caring behavior was in the excellent category as many as 50 respondents (83%) and the majority of patients' spirituality level was in the high category as many as 58 respondents (97%).
Conclusions: Based on the Spearman rank statistical test, the p-value is 0.000 (p <0.05) with a correlation index of 0.547.
