HUMANISTIC NURSING
Embraces more than a benevolent
technically competent subject-object oneway relationship guided by a nurse
in behalf of another. Rather it dictates that
nursing is a responsible searching,
transactional relationship whose
meaningfulness demands conceptualization
founded on a nurse's existential awareness
of self and of other (Paterson & Zderad)
Introduction
IMPLICIT ASSUMPTIONS
Nursing involves two human beings who are willing
to enter into an existential relationship with each
other.
Nurses and patients as human beings are unique
and total biopsychosocial beings with the potential
for becoming through choice and intersubjectivity.
Every encounter with another human being is an
open and profound one, with a great deal of
intimacy that deeply and humanistically influences
members in the encounter.
