Abstract
This article discusses creating a caring learning environment for undergraduate nursing students. The purpose is to apply the results of a research study in which students described their lived experience with caring in the nursing environment. Students (N = 23) shared caring and uncaring stories about their curricula. The study identified two patterns: "The Power of the Faculty" and "Creating a Caring Learning Environment." The authors discuss the implications of these patterns for developing caring faculty practices and a caring learning environment.Keywords
