ABSTRACT
Objective:To examine the effect of applying clinical pathway model in the cultivation of humanistic care ability of nursing college students in clinical practical teaching.Methods:The study collected 52 nursing students who practiced in the department of gynecology of a tertiary first-class hospital in Xi’an from July to October, 2017 as the control group, and 52 nursing students who practiced in the same unit from July to October, 2018 were selected as the experimental group. The control group adopted the teaching method of infiltrating humanistic care education into the training process of operational skills, while the experimental group adopted the teaching method of cultivating humanistic care ability of nursing college students through clinical pathway. The differences of humanistic care ability scores between the two groups were compared. SPSS 19.0 was used for t test. Results:Before the internship, there was no statistically significant difference in humanistic care scores between the two groups ( P>0.05). After the internship, the total scores of nursing students in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Applying the clinical pathway model to the cultivation of humanistic care ability of nursing students in clinical practice teaching is a new cultivation model of humanistic care ability, which is helpful to improve the humanistic care ability of nursing students.
