Heart failure impacts millions globally, yet relatively little information is available from a holistic, narrative perspective. This research brief used a unitary caring science perspective to explore illness narratives of military veterans with heart failure receiving care from a U.S. Veterans Administration facility. Five veterans were interviewed. Results were analyzed using established narrative methods. Components of unitary caring science that emerged included interconnection, caring, the importance of story, and meaning creation. These findings inform and expand unitary caring science research, expanding this approach to interdisciplinary applications and advancing understanding of the experience of U.S. veterans with heart failure.

Communion, defined as a shared journey of honoring each other’s being in and with the world, becomes a scared relational space for Professional Self-Hood. Professional Self-Hood has been defined as an internal embodiment and an external expression of nursing, the compilation of influences of being in and being with the world. Entering into communion to stretch in uncomfortableness begins the movement to unlearn, relearn, reaffirm, and recommit to the ongoing evolution of a just and caring version of ourselves as professionals, embodied and made visible as our Professional Self-Hood.

This phenomenological study describes hospitalized patients’ experience being bathed by nursing staff. Six former patients were interviewed about their experience during hospitalization. Transcribed interviews were analyzed to create a linguisitic construction of it. Results were triangulated by data or descriptors in Cameron’s research on the nature of nursing practice and noncognitive forms of knowledge and Watson’s theory. Theme clusters were: about patients, evaluating caring and non-caring nurses, and being bathed.

The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a cascade of events, policy directives, and guidance. The U.S. Military Health System was leading the war, the first time in military history. Fulfilling its military medical readiness and beneficiary health-care delivery missions stimulated innovation. Applying the theory of bureaucratic caring revealed concepts of uncertainty, interconnectedness, choice-making, and emergence as determinants of growth, development, and future state for the Military Health System. New ways of thinking targeting health-care services laid the foundation for a radically different future. This article elucidates application of the theory to the Military Health System response to this global catastrophe.

At a public university, a nursing faculty member offered a first-year seminar course focused on helping students learn to care for self and others. A premise of the course was that learning how to learn is a form of self-care. Students explore Watson’s theory of human caring, learning how to learn, and contemplative practices. Through varied learning activities, students explored academic and wellness resources on campus. Student work demonstrated understanding of a caring theory. Incorporation of caring principles into the classroom benefits students in becoming a caring person.

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among self-care, compassion satisfaction, and compassion fatigue of nurses in community hospitals in the Southeastern United States. A descriptive, nonexperimental, correlational, cross-sectional research design using purposive convenience sampling with primary data analysis was utilized in this study. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression. Statistically significant relationships were identified for self-care and compassion satisfaction and also self-care and compassion fatigue/burnout.

This study examines undergraduate nursing students’ experiences of participating in a Caring Behavior Course using various learning didactics. Twenty-five students participated in one of five focus group interviews with data analyzed according to qualitative content analysis. The main theme to emerge, an insightful and sudden awakening that caring is not only theoretical words, was further explained with three themes and nine subthemes. The Caring Behavior Course demonstrates effective learning didactics to develop awareness of values that influence caring behaviors and can contribute to patient well-being, particularly relevant for the care challenges in the time of COVID-19 and beyond.

We embarked on a quality improvement plan to improve culture care in a school of nursing. The nursing workforce is experiencing escalating occupational stress, leading to high turnover. When faculty role model caring, they empower themselves and the future workforce with strategies for self-care and resilience. A faculty self-assessment of caring behaviors and caring relationships was conducted before a caring science workshop. The workshop used Watson’s Caritas Processes to introduce caring micro-practices. Qualitative interviews with faculty after the workshop generated two themes: self-awareness of self-care and caring pedagogy. Themes revealed faculty value this approach for continuous improvement in a caring culture.
