Background: This article reviews national efforts toward promoting fair and just cultures in schools of nursing. A real-life vignette in which a nursing student made a medication error is presented, and the nursing program contacted the nursing regulatory body for advice on how to handle the situation. Method: A framework was used to analyze the causes of the error. Commentary is offered regarding how applying the principles of a fair and just culture could improve student performance and advance the school's culture to reflect one that was fair and just. Results: A fair and just culture requires a commitment of all leaders and faculty within a school of nursing. Administrators and faculty must recognize that errors are part of the learning process, that errors can be minimized but not eliminated, and that learning can occur from each incident to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Conclusion: Academic leaders must engage faculty, staff, and students in a dialogue about the principles of a fair and just culture to develop a tailored plan of action.
