BACKGROUND: Corona virus disease disease as a life‑threatening respiratory disease causes psychological problems including hopelessness in patients. So the aim of this study was to determine the effect of Narrative writing reflection on hope of patient with COVID‑19. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was experimental with a pre‑test‑post‑test and with the control group design. The subjects were randomly divided into the intervention (n = 30) and control (n = 30) groups. The intervention group received Narrative writing reflection. The control group was receiving routine care. Before and after the intervention, the patients were asked to complete the 12‑item Herth Hope Index. Data were analyzed with by using spss software and paired t test and independent t‑test with a significance level of P < 0.05. RESULTS: Independent t‑test showed that the hope scores before intervention in both intervention and control groups were not statistically significant (P > 0.05), whereas there was a significant difference between two groups after the intervention (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that the use of mindfulness methods such as narrative writing in hospitalized and quarantined patients who are unable to communicate with the outside environment could increase the hope in patient. © 2023 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.
