Mentorship is a reciprocal relationship geared toward developing inexperienced individuals' professional competencies. This hospital-based, mentorship account presents case studies illustrating mentorship examples of engagement in the research process and shares anecdotes of nurses' mastery of nursing research studies. Evidence and mentorship principles are oriented in the context of caritas processes. The mentorship affiliation benefits mentees' progress in employing research methods, building a stronger nursing research program, and advancing a healthcare system's nursing research agenda. It highlights mentees' professional journeys and development as a local and regional research committee chair, research study coinvestigator, principal investigator, and manuscript author.

Healthcare providers in advanced healthcare systems recognize the value of practices involving technological competencies in healthcare. Theory-based practice, grounded in Locsin's Technological Competency as Caring in nursing theory, warrants investments in quality nursing care. This study determined the effect of in-service educational programs for nurse managers regarding perceptions of the theory. Five, 1-hour lecture sessions weekly showed significant effects on understanding technological competency as expression of caring in nursing. Technological Competency as caring in nursing theory-based educational programs offer promising ways to ensure that understanding technological competency as caring assures quality healthcare.

The Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing Instrument-Revised (TCCNI-R) was developed from the Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing theory. To assess the psychometric properties, a four-factor questionnaire comprised the TCCNI-R. Only 590 of 1,322 online questionnaire responses by nurses in 11 general hospitals in Chugoku-Shikoku, Japan, were analyzed and interpreted. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis via SEM justified construct validity, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient established reliability. Goodness of fit was rejected; however fit index value was accepted. Root mean square of error approximation showed reasonable approximation error. The TCCNI-R showed content validity and reliability in measuring technological competency as expression of caring in nursing.

This study describes and illuminates voluntary lay doula caring during childbearing for the woman and her partner. The theoretical perspective is based on Eriksson's theory of caritative caring. Latent qualitative content analysis was chosen using semistructured interviews with a purposive sample of nine voluntary unpaid lay doulas in a Nordic nongovernmental organization. Caring as incubating, messaging, alleviating, and enabling offers a new understanding of doula care as tailored continuous caring to benefit the birth experience of both parents. This core of caring might also provide a mutual basis for collaboration between voluntary doula care and professional midwifery care.

We analyzed interviews from participants who provided massage or simple touch to patients with advanced cancer near end of life. We employed qualitative, descriptive, content analysis to participants responding to a semistructured interview. Three themes emerged that align with a unitary caring perspective: caring relationships, pattern recognition and wholeness, and transformations and transcendence. Findings from this study are significant for human care and caring. Providing touch for those near end of life is a catalyst in developing caring relationships and essential for holistic practice.

Ken Wilber’s integral metatheory is an interpretive framework that can that be applied to the clinical practice of medicine and medical and nursing education. It offers a comprehensive view of the patient illness experience superior to current models of patient care and may provide a valuable guide for nursing and medical practice and teaching. This article seeks to explain some of the basic concepts of integral metatheory and show their potential application to practice and teaching using the current COVID-19 pandemic as an illustrative model.

In the context of breastfeeding care, models are lacking that can guide caring practice. This article examines the prerequisites for care to be caring, based on research about breastfeeding difficulties. These prerequisites are presented as a theoretical model of caring that demonstrates that a genuine caring relationship, embodied wisdom, and an ability to create a space for dwelling, together with cultural awareness, form the prerequisites for the breastfeeding story to be a hub in caring practice. The model contributes to the development of caring practices that embrace the existentiality of each woman's breastfeeding experiences.

Despite the abundance of servant leadership literature, scholars recognize the need for a more precise conceptualization of the concept. Although the predominant literature emanates from organizational management and industry describing servant leadership as a theory, model, philosophy, or leadership style, less attention has focused on servant leadership in academia, and most notably in nursing. The purpose of this analysis is to clarify the concept of servant leadership and to provide further delineation of this highly relevant, but elusive concept in nursing. Findings of this concept analysis identify a linkage among servant leadership characteristics, caring theories, and the profession of nursing.

This article examines the art of nursing, through a systematic exploration of the literature and application of Rodgers' methodology for conducting a conceptual analysis. The phases of Rodgers' evolutionary approach are explained, including the selection of literary works and methods for data collection and analysis, and through the introduction of a model case. Although the literature revealed inconsistent interpretations and a dynamic conceptualization of the art of nursing, various meanings and contexts for understanding the art of nursing are presented, along with implications for advancing nursing knowledge and contemporary evidence related to the art of nursing.
