“…Conversely, the cynicism in the present study seemed to relate more to the perceived possibility of lightening the work overload, a perception that was remarkable in students' shared experiences, but appeared to fade and transform into an "unattainable" goal several years after graduation (hence the cynical attitude). This attitude is consonant with feelings of "powerlessness" and "resignment" that nurses expressed facing their struggles in humanizing care in previous studies (Cassiano et al, 2015;Guillaumie et al, 2020). The experienced and accomplished nurses in the present study understood that changing the work overload involved exerting political influences towards various stakeholders, an agenda that is usually led by unions.…”

Background Most nursing education programs prepare their students to embody humanism and caring as it is expected by several regulatory bodies. Ensuring this embodiment in students and nurses remains a challenge because there is a lack of evidence about its progressive development through education and practice. Purpose This manuscript provides a description of nursing students’ and nurses’ recommendations that can foster the development of humanistic caring. Methods Interpretive phenomenology was selected as the study's methodological approach. Participants (n = 26) were recruited from a French-Canadian university and an affiliated university hospital. Data was collected through individual interviews. Data analysis consisted of an adaptation of Benner’s (1994) phenomenological principles that resulted in a five-stage interpretative process. Results The following five themes emerged from the phenomenological analysis of participants’ recommendations: 1) pedagogical strategies, 2) educators’ approach, 3) considerations in teaching humanistic caring, 4) work overload, and 5) volunteerism and externship. Conclusion The findings suggest the existence of a challenge when using mannikins in high-fidelity simulations with the intention of developing humanistic caring. The findings also reaffirm the importance of giving concrete and realistic exemplars of humanistic caring to students in order to prevent them from making “communication” synonymous to “humanization of care”.

“…[9][10][11][12] Similarly, studies of nurses' perspectives on humanized care consistently find that nurses also deplore the gap between that they perceive as the core of their profession-providing humanized care-and the practical requirements that impede them from doing so. [9][10][11][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Organizational constraints and unsupportive work environments have been demonstrated to have negative consequences on nurses' ability to provide humanized care. Staff shortages, 25 heavy workloads, 26 involuntary overtime, 27 variable work shifts, 28 lack of recognition and managerial support, 29 and low professional autonomy 28 have been previously identified as contributing to job dissatisfaction, 30 work stress, 31 and compassion fatigue.…”

Previous studies have reported a conflict between nurses' motivation to provide humanized care and practical requirements impeding them from doing so. This exploratory descriptive qualitative study aimed to explore nurses' perspectives on humanized care, the challenges they face, and, most importantly, their recommendations to overcome these barriers. Semistructured individual interviews were conducted with 17 auxiliary and registered nurses working in various health care units in a Canadian hospital. Participants demonstrated a good understanding of what humanized care covers and entails. They also described it as the very core of their profession and main source of job satisfaction. However, nurses reported that they are confronted with organizational barriers, mainly a lack of staff, the burden of administrative tasks, unsuitable physical environments or equipment, and little managerial support. Nurses stressed the need for a cultural change in managerial practices in order to be able to improve their provision of humanized care. Based on the findings, 4 structuring recommendations were identified: adopting an institutional policy promoting the implementation of humanized care, incorporating humanized care in nurses' tasks and procedures, improving participatory management, and ensuring adequate staffing.

“…A falta de apoio e orientações durante o puerpério podem comprometer as práticas de cuidado à puérpera, oferecendo riscos potenciais a sua saúde. 14 Durante a realização da consulta puerperal, o MS preconiza que sejam verificados, no cartão da gestante e/ou por meio de questionamento à puérpera, os dados referentes ao processo gravídico-puerperal como forma de qualificar as práticas de cuidado à puérpera. 9 Para isso, é preciso saber sobre as condições da gestação, do atendimento ao parto e ao RN, a data do parto, a via de nascimento e sua indicação, intercorrências na gestação, no parto ou no pós-parto, aconselhamentos recebidos, testagem para sífilis e vírus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV) durante a gestação e/ou parto e o uso de medicações.…”
