Although caring for the mind, body, and spiritual components of the patient has been shown as a key component of patient care, nursing students are graduating with very little preparation in regards to this holistic practice. Students are prepared to meet the physical and mental needs of the patients; however, the spiritual domain of this holistic care is being neglected. All areas should be addressed within patient care. When one area is neglected, patient outcomes are not optimal. The purpose of this qualitative study was to focus on the spiritual aspect of holistic care and how an experiential learning method such as international medical trips could enhance a student’s ability and comfort level in this area. Providing students with this opportunity not only allows them unique experiences within healthcare, but it also gives students rare insights into the spiritual and cultural sides of human beings. In addition to providing these unique experiences to students in order to promote comfort in providing holistic care, students also need the opportunity to reflect and gather concrete learning from the experience. Using methods such as interviews and reflective journals, findings from this study indicated that nursing students lack knowledge and experience and have very little confidence in the area of providing holistic care especially related to spiritual care. Providing learning experiences through service learning activities such as international medical trips created opportunities for students to not only get the experience but also to grow in maturity and confidence in providing spiritual care.
