This study explored the understanding of caring in nursing among Japanese undergraduate nursing students during their second year of study, highlighting the focus on reciprocal relationships, whole-person relating, and practice competency. The findings indicate the importance for nurse educators to develop teaching and learning strategies to help nursing students continuously grow as caring individuals.
Background: Caring is the heart of nursing. However, not many understand the significance of caring in nursing from the perspectives of undergraduate nursing students, especially in Japan. Aim: To describe caring in nursing among Japanese nursing students as learned and communicated through their aesthetic expressions. Methods: The study employed hermeneutic phenomenology. Sixty-one Japanese nursing students in their second year of baccalaureate degree studies participated. Constituting the data were art-based graphic expressions, such as drawings and written reflections on the drawings, as a response to the question of how the participants describe their meanings of caring in nursing. The thematic analysis method was used to analyze and interpret the data. The trustworthiness of the research was established following Lincoln and Guba's criteria. Findings: Seven thematic categories were identified. These categories include (1) Engaging with others; (2) Knowing each other; (3) Being with other persons; (4) Nurturing intimate personal growth; (5) Supporting wholeness of persons; (6) Vacillating rhythm; and (7) Intensifying competency. Conclusion: This study described the understanding of caring in nursing among undergraduate Japanese nursing students during their second year of study. The caring in nursing focused on reciprocal relationships, wholeperson relating, and practice competency. Findings suggested that nurse educators should develop teachinglearning strategies for nursing students to continuously grow as caring persons.
