Abstract
This study provided new insights into how students' new knowledge translated into compassionate action. Students described the positive impact of small acts of compassion from one nurse to another that enhanced teamwork and resilience. Recognising the critical role of compassion to patient and family outcomes, provider wellbeing, and organisational culture, these findings could be used by nurse leaders and educators to develop evidence-informed curricula to foster the practice of compassion which all nurses aspire to provide.
