Summary
This study tested a special ethics and morals course for newly graduated nurses at one hospital. The course was based on the Ashridge training model and aimed to boost nurses' sense of professional mission, perceived benefits of their job, and humanistic care abilities. Researchers compared 120 nurses who took the course with a group who received standard training only. The goal was to see if moral education could improve both nurses' outlook and their practical skills.
