Description
Nurses need more than technical skill; they also need to work well with people and judge hard cases. Sheron Penha Serrano and co-authors asked nursing teachers how they build those soft skills in their students. Their 2026 study looks at undergraduate nursing programs in Brazil. Soft skills cover how a person deals with others, makes choices, and manages daily work.
The team spoke with 26 teachers at four federal public universities in the south of the country. The teachers named the skills they see as most vital for new nurses. They also described how they fit those skills into their classes and what blocks the work. Answers like these can help programs teach the human side of nursing in a more planned way.
