Caring science has been described as abstract, difficult to apply, or unscientific common sense. An alternative view is that caring science knowledge does not pose a greater challenge because it is abstract, but because it challenges caregivers' existence. No matter how nursing faculty perceive these challenges, it is crucial to create a context where students are supported in the integration of theoretical knowledge. This article addresses teachers' responsibility for creating a caring learning environment. It further proposes how reflections on perspectives and concepts can be linked to experiential learning to contribute to students' embodied understanding of caring science.

There exists the evidence that clinical simulation can cultivate caring behaviors among nursing students. Despite this, there is an inadequate educational approach used in cultivating caring behaviors. This paper presents the enculturation practices use in cultivating caring in clinical simulation. An integrative review was conducted using primary research articles published between 2010 and 2020 from electronic databases and the web. In the context of simulation, enculturation is defined as an outcome of learning where the nursing student is immersed in a structured environment. Vehicles for cultivating caring behaviors are delivered intentionally or unintentionally through role modeling, didactics, verbal instruction, interactions, and socialization.

The theory of bureaucratic caring, generated from lived experiences of healthcare professionals and patients, synthesized the thesis of caring with the anti-thesis of bureaucracy (hospital). This author applied the theory in settings within the United States Air Force Medical Service and the Military Health System. Using categories of caring as spheres in which to leverage caring, the author developed projects on communication, self-efficacy, healthcare readiness, evidence-based practice, spiritual health, and education. The article describes applications of the theory across settings in the military. This author encourages others to apply the theory in their organizations as part of their nursing journey.

In this research brief, researchers used a quantitative method, descriptive design, and cross-sequential grouping to investigate changes in empathy of pre-professional healthcare students over the course of their degree programs. Changes in empathy occurred; however, changes did not measure as statistically significant. Empathy overall increased; it decreased for certain majors and increased for others. The importance of empathy in the healthcare arena points to a need for specific efforts by educators toward increasing student empathy throughout these programs of study. This study showed that empathy is being maintained, but only just barely, over the course of these programs.

This study aimed to develop the Grief State Scale for Nurses to measure the level of nurses' grief and to identify items influencing grief levels among Indonesian nurses. A total of 267 questionnaires were analyzed and interpreted. Statistical analyses were performed using descriptive statistics and exploratory factor analysis. Items influential in increasing nurses' grief were relating death with personal loss; patient's age/illness similar to nurse's family members; and having rapport with patients. Time and place to express grief, allocation of grieving time, and sharing collegial emotional expressions were items found to decrease levels of nurses' grief.

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.

This article presents a tentative theoretical model of nurses' becoming as human beings in end-of-life care. As human beings, nurses are vulnerable. Caring for patients at the end of life can strengthen their own understanding of life and death. In the caring communion, nurses gain contact with life and themselves as human beings. Nurses' becoming as human beings in end-of-life care can be understood as a strength and a willingness to act in love and in compassion as they strive to understand and be reconciled with their own life situations, happiness, and grief.

Healthcare professionals encounter patients' and relatives' expressions of doubt, despair, and hope in relation to illness and suffering. These feelings and experiences are often challenging for patients, relatives, and carers to face. The article's purpose is to describe and discuss how the meaning of doubt, despair, dread, and belief can be understood through Kierkegaard's and Spinoza's philosophical thoughts, thus contributing to a deeper understanding of caring and knowledge in caring science. Dread, doubt, and despair have their roots in grief and powerlessness but are also connected to belief and faith, which create an inner strength that can alleviate suffering.

Infants who are born premature require hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). In this study, 10 parents and seven grandmothers were interviewed with the purpose of exploring their experiences of having a premature infant in the NICU being cared for by nurses whose practice was grounded in Watson's theory of human caring caritas processes. Qualitative descriptive analysis revealed expressions of the caring moment lived as an intentional presence, within the context of the caritas processes to care for the infant and family, with loving-kindness, helping trusting relationship, creating caring healing environment, and allowing for hope and miracles.
