Abstract

Previous research findings from the student’s experience support caring groups as an experiential strategy for teaching and learning caring in a BSN program focusing on a caring philosophy. This study explores the caring group experience from the perspective of nine faculty members who served as faculty facilitators for caring groups. Data regarding faculty stories was essential to complete the understanding of the experience of student and teacher. Findings from this study include the belief that faculty viewed the caring group experience as essential in providing opportunities for students to learn and practice the art and science of caring. Through participation in caring groups as facilitators, faculty experienced increased self-awareness, personal growth, and opportunities to reexamine pedagogical practices. Faculty also identified inherent burdens in facilitating a caring group.
