Abstract: Objective: To explore the realistic dilemmas of implementing humanistic caring among nursing students in higher vocational colleges during the clinical clerkship phase, and to provide a reference for the development of a humanistic caring capability cultivation system. Methods: Using the phenomenological research method in qualitative research, purposive sampling was used and 14 nursing students with over 5 months of clinical clerkship experience were included for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi′s seven-step analysis method was utilized to organize and analyze the data. Results: Barriers to the implementation of humanistic caring were categorized into three main themes involving educational system factors (including insufficient humanistic caring training, inappropriate teaching methods, and educators′ deficiency in humanistic care), occupational environment factors (including heavy workload, lack of caring atmosphere, negative patient feedback, and incomplete evaluation system), and personal quality factors (including insufficient individual abilities and differences in personality characteristics). Conclusion: Nursing education should undergo a reform geared towards caring and nursing focusing on humanistic caring ability training. Hospitals and schools should collaborate to establish a feasible training system which could integrate humanistic quality education with professional content. Additionally, improvements in the occupational environment should be explored, and targeted educational strategies should be developed basing on the characteristics of nursing students to enhance their humanistic caring abilities.
