| Sumario: | Introduction: Studies prove the generally positive association of spirituality with the health of individuals. However, there is still no consensus between the concept of spirituality in academic or professional environments. Thus, this study aimed to analyze how the concept of spirituality is understood by preceptors and residents of residency programs at the Recife Health Department. Material and Methods: Exploratory, descriptive study, with a qualitative approach, with a sample of 16 residents and 16 preceptors from 8 SESAU-Recife Residency Programs. Data were collected using a semi-structured interview script. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed following Minayo's proposal. The study followed the terms of resolutions 466/12 and 510/16 of the National Health Council for research on human beings, being approved by the CEP of the NN by protocol 2,811,270. Results and Discussion: Of the 32 subjects interviewed, most were female, Catholic, single, without children, with an average age of 33 years, average income of R$ 6,171.00. The content was divided into four categories: Spirituality as care, as empathy, as ethics and as religion. It was noted that many respondents understood care as spirituality due to the holistic concept of health, which includes the spiritual sphere. The concept of empathy guides their relationship through its transformative power, which is used by many religious leaders. Ethics is related to spirituality where as many moral codes are governed by its principles. Finally, the association between spirituality and religion occurs through the superposition of these concepts, often found as synonyms. Conclusions: It was identified that many of the interviewees understood the aspects related to the concept of spirituality, also relating it to ethics, empathy and care. Thus, the authors of this study intend to contribute to a better understanding of these concepts and their impact on the health of individuals. |
