Central to PNS’ ability to demonstrate competence in the fundamentals of nursing care are core nursing attributes to meaningfully engage and attend to patients’ in delivering compassionate care and meeting their needs.

This paper discusses the concept of compassion in nursing education for PNS, its significance in the healing process and the challenges around building compassionate capacities for the future nursing workforce.
