Abstract

Driven by the evolution of the medical model and the widespread adoption of patient-centered care, higher demands are now placed on the humanistic qualities of nursing professionals. Humanistic competence in nursing encompasses the knowledge, caring behaviors, and abilities required in clinical practice; it is intrinsically linked to the quality of nursing services and the overall patient experience. However, deficiencies exist in current undergraduate nursing curricula regarding humanistic education, which hinders the cultivation of competent nursing professionals. This paper systematically analyzes the status quo of humanistic education for undergraduate nursing students and explores existing challenges. Accordingly, it proposes feasible training strategies and practical approaches from multiple dimensions. This study aims to promote the reform of humanistic education, enhance the professional competence of nursing personnel, and provide a reference for future professional education.
