Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of nursing students' care-oriented practices on the attitudes and behaviors of nurse-patient interactions. Subjects and Method: The research was carried out with 127 students, who were actively studying during the academic year, who were doing their intern practice in surgical clinics and voluntarily participated in the research. Research data were collected using the “Personal Information Form” and “Caring Nurse-Patient Interaction (CNPI) Scale”. In the study, it was ensured that the students gave care in line with the care plan they prepared for a different patient every week for five weeks, and and the "Caring Plans” were implemented by discussing them with the relevant instructor every week. After five weeks, the CNPI scale was applied again. Results: The mean age of the students participating in the study was 22.5±0.89 years, of which 75.6% were female. It was determined that 50.3% of the students chose the nursing department because of their high job opportunities. While 97.6% of the students stated that care is one of the main duties of the nurse, 75.6% stated that the care applied in the clinics is patient-oriented. It was determined that the mean scores of the CNPI scale significance and adequacy sub-dimensions were significantly higher after the application than before the clinical application (p<0.05). Conclusion: As a result of this study, it was determined that care-oriented patient practices in clinical practice education improved students' attitudes and behaviors towards nurse-patient interaction.
