| Sumario: | Training of nursing students should enhance their skills to provide proper care, linking experience, scientific knowledge, technical skills, values and motivation to work with and for others. There is a risk of dehumanization due to administrative and technical health centers institutional models. Humanized care tends to develop a transpersonal relationship, considers values and higher needs of people who go through the process of health, disease and dignified death. The aim of this study was to identify skills to provide humanized care from the perspective of students. It is a descriptive cross-sectional study with a population of 98 nursing students of 3rd and 4th year (n = 57; 3rd = 20; 4th = 37) whose consent was requested, and also the authorization of the school authorities. The instrument used was the Care Ability Inventory (CAI), which measures the areas of Knowledge, Courage and Patience corresponding to a value of Cronbach α of 0.74. Statistics like frequency distribution, mean, average and percentages were used (Software SPSS-15). The results show a score of 63% in Patience, 35% Knowledge and only 2% in Courage. Patience requires the exercise of tolerance, respect and adaptation to situational uncertainty, generating a close link between the person and the student; this ability scored the highest. Knowledge includes self-knowledge and knowledge of others; it is less developed, causing a breach in the act of caring. The low value in Courage shows the difficulty in facing the unknown and in one’s ability to care, negatively influencing the development of the necessary strength to face proper care. These results show the need to strengthen nursingstudents coping skills to everyday situations, especially the dimensions of Knowledge and Courage. |
