- Abstract
Abstract: When students are exposed to digital stories about a particular nursing field, they feel more prepared to practice in that field. The purpose of this innovative teaching project was to introduce undergraduate nursing students to palliative care nursing through digital storytelling. Digital interviews with experienced nurses from five specialties were compiled and shared with students. Student responses indicated a positive impact on their professional identity and greater awareness about palliative care. Students benefited from hearing about "real" experiences and exploring diverse specialties and reported that this activity helped decrease their fear, find beauty in death, and value nursing presence., Competing Interests: The authors have declared no conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2022 National League for Nursing.)
