Abstract
The aim of this qualitative study was to investigate proficient first-line nurse leaders’ caring for the nursing staff. The study was undertaken in Benner and Wrubel’s caring framework. Ten leaders were interviewed and data were analyzed following a hermeneutic approach. Caring for the nursing staff was imperative for the leaders; it was a moral agency linked to an ambition to perform high-quality care. The ambition could be assistance in bedside care, dialoguing with the staff, or planning for staff development. Further studies are needed and proficient nurse leaders need opportunities to discuss their ways of caring for the staff.
