  • Caring is a human activity that is defined as a relationship and a process whose purpose goes beyond simply treating illnesses. In the field of nursing, care is considered the essence of the profession. Humanized care is essential in the ethical and social values of nurse-patient care, implying the application of ethical principles and the student's self-perception. This process is based on the connection and shared experiences between the nurse and the patient. The objective of this research was to determine the level of applicability of humanized care in relation to the sociodemographic data of the Nursing students of the Adventist Technological Institute of Ecuador, Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas 2021. No relationship was found between the age of the students and the perception of humanized care (X² = 6.382; P = 0.1759). There was also no association between gender and humanized care (X² = 1.787; P = 0.4092). The students' degree did not show a relationship with humanized care (X² = 3.414; P = 0.1814). However, there is a significant relationship between the level of the student cycle and humanized care (X² = 17.615; P = 0.024) at the regular level. The results suggest that academic development influences the ability to provide more humanized care
