Abstract

En 中文

Health care professionals perceive caring as fundamental to their practice, viewing it as both a calling and a virtue. Yet, the literature on caring underscores a crisis of genuine commitment to caring and a growing need to foster caring values and actions within clinical learning environments. This study aimed to explore caring actions; examine perceived systemic, institutional, and individual barriers and facilitators to caring in health care; and identify multilevel strategies to promote caring behaviors in the clinical learning environment.
