Abstract

Currently, nursing professionalism is becoming increasingly practical, and training requires comprehensive changes in values, critical thinking, and interrelationships to strengthen care. Therefore, the information search process focused on how comprehensive training influences nursing practitioners from an ethical, cognitive, and communicative perspective. The methodology was based on a literature review of 102 journals indexed in SciELO, Scopus, and Web of Science, of which 41 were relevant to the analysis of the dimensions. The results show that nursing is comprehensive in nature and influences ethical, cognitive, and communicative training. In conclusion, comprehensive nurses access scientific knowledge through the application of bioethics, as well as through the analysis and management of communication skills with colleagues, users, and teachers.
