ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: to understand the meanings and practices related to spirituality experienced by Nursing teams in the daily care provided in Oncology. METHODS: qualitative research, guided by the theory of Holistic Nursing by Myra Levine, conducted with members of the Nursing team at an Oncology hospital in Brazil. Data collection was carried out in 2018, through an interview guided by a semi-structured script. Data analysis was performed using Lawrence Bardin's Content Analysis technique. RESULTS: two categories emerged: the first brought to light the meanings attributed to spirituality by the Nursing team and the second category presented the practices of spiritual care by Nursing personnel in their daily routine in Oncology, highlighting that professionals address spirituality with patients in different ways. CONCLUSION: the approach to spirituality in Oncology care and in the professional training of Nursing personnel is essential, as a way of providing holistic and humanized care, thus strengthening the psycho-spiritual dimension in daily care.
