The Impact of Caring: Teaching Students Empathy Through the Patient Voice.

The purpose of this educational brief is to describe an innovative learning experience focused on teaching students empathy for chronic illness, using patient voices. Panel members of individuals who had experienced acute and chronic illness from either the perspective of the patient or caregiver participated in a one-time session for undergraduate baccalaureate nursing students. Panel members presented their narrative to the students, engaging them in a question-and-answer session about the impact of nursing care on their experience.
