Nursing as Caring: A Model for Transforming Practice by Boykin and Schoenhofer
"Nursing as Caring: A Model for Transforming Practice" by Anne Boykin and Savina O. Schoenhofer is a scientific publication likely written in the late 20th century. This work articulates a new theory of nursing that emphasizes the concept of caring as essential to the practice and discipline of nursing. The authors aim to redefine nursing through the lens of caring, making it clear that understanding oneself as a caring person is crucial
for effective nursing practice. At the start of the text, the authors lay the foundation for their theory by discussing the unique nature of nursing and the importance of human connection and caring in the nursing profession. They argue that caring is not just a set of actions but a fundamental aspect of being human that should inform every nursing situation. The authors introduce the concept of the "nursing situation" as a shared experience where the nurse and patient engage together in a meaningful, caring relationship. By focusing on nurturing individuals as they live and grow in caring, the authors set the stage for a transformative model of nursing practice that seeks to enhance both the caregiver and the cared-for.
