  • Title: Cultivating authentic concern: exploring how Norwegian students learn this key nursing skill.
    Author: Christiansen B.
    Journal: J Nurs Educ; 2009 Aug; 48(8):429-33. PubMed ID: 19681531.
    Abstract:
    The importance of interpersonal and expressive qualities has long been recognized in nursing. Drawing on data from a qualitative study among nursing students in Norway, this article discusses how nursing students cultivate authentic concern with patients. Because the nursing role has become more ambiguous, it must be created and formed in a personal way. Nursing students need to learn how to use their subjectivity in a way that promotes caring and compassionate conduct.
