Abstract
The Medical School of the Universidade Federal de Cariri (UFCA) has added a curriculum proposing the integration of knowledge and skills through a problematizing methodology since 2001. The theme of spirituality and health was little approached during the first years, until the emergence of a group of students which promoted a monitoring program on the integration of spirituality in the discipline of medical semiotics. The students of the discipline of medical semiotics were accompanied by monitors and instructors in lectures, realistic simulations and practical activities in hospital, focusing on patient’s spiritual dimension. The set of actions enabled monitors and tutors to reflect deeply on the importance of teaching the patient’s spirituality approach to students, as a strategy to promote integrated knowledge, innovative skills and attitudes towards holism and compassion.
