Full textAbstract:
Increasingly complex occupational demands along with varied educational and personal examples of caring, may impact the ability to deeply connect with patients. Literature has identified that nurses and patients have differing perceptions of caring behaviors. Jean Watson's Theory of Human Caring provides a framework for care delivery that focuses on the caring nurse–patient relationship and the experience through the patients' lens.Caring healing relationships are at the core of professional nursing. The purpose of this project was to design and deliver an educational seminar based on Jean Watson's Theory of Human Caring to newly graduated nurses to examine the impact on self-efficacy in caring behaviors.The project participants (N = 56) consisted of a nonprobability convenience sample of newly graduated nurses at a local faith-based community hospital. The educational intervention consisted of experiential learning activities to facilitate translating theory to practice. The study utilized the Caring Efficacy Scale (CES), which is an instrument based on Watson's caring theory and Albert Bandura's self-efficacy theory. Results demonstrated a significant improvement in caring efficacy between the preintervention (M = 5.1, SD = .47), and immediate post intervention (M = 5.5, SD = .38); t (52) = −9.09, p = .000.The knowledge from this study could provide insights for the development of effective teaching strategies to facilitate translating nursing theory to practice. Establishing and developing skills to facilitate nurturing, caring nurse–patient relationships may enhance both the patient and caregiver experience.

Full textAbstract:
This article reviewed 19 intervention studies based on Watson's Human Caring Theory between January 2005 and February 2018. The studies reviewed targeted on promoting patients', nurses', and nursing students' psychological health and patient care experiences. Most (15/19; 78.95%) of the studies in this review indicated that Watson's caring science-based interventions could decrease patients' emotional strains, increase patients' self-management confidence and emotional well-being, increase nurses' job satisfaction and engagement, and improve nursing students' confidence in the clinical performance and the awareness of caring behaviors. Nursing is a discipline that requires both scientific knowledge and the art of human caring.

Full textAbstract:
Loss is a fundamental human experience, and with loss comes grief. Healthcare's fast-paced, high-tech, professional environment is juxtaposed to the human caring focus of the nursing profession. Providing nurses with a theoretical context for working with people dealing with loss and grief will help nurses to provide care to those in need. By employing the three major conceptual elements of Watson's Theory of Human Caring, the caritas processes, the transpersonal caring relationship, and the caring occasion/caring moment, a nurse can create a more holistically therapeutic experience for patients and families.

Background and PurposeMany women are ceasing to breastfeed in the early period due to the breastfeeding problems and difficulties they perceive. Consequently, the approach and support of health professionals to mothers in the post-partum period is very important. The objective of the study is to determine the emotions and experiences of mothers who had breastfeeding problems by using Watson's Theory of Human Caring.MethodsThe research is a descriptive and qualitative type of study. The data were collected from 20 women with the semi-structured interview method based on Watson's Theory. The data were analyzed according to the Caritas Processes of Watson's Theory.ResultsIt was determined that the health professionals did not show enough assistance, support and interest to the mothers who had breastfeeding problems and that the mothers expected respect, empathy, sincerity, understanding, trust, and assistance during this period.Implication for PracticeThe use of the interview methods based on Watson's Theory of Human Caring in the determination of the difficulties and emotions experienced by the women who had breastfeeding problems will be a guide for the health professionals. It is thought that the approaches based on Watson's Caritas Processes that would be made to women who had breastfeeding problems would be effective for understanding their experience and emotions.

Infants who are born premature require hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). In this study, 10 parents and seven grandmothers were interviewed with the purpose of exploring their experiences of having a premature infant in the NICU being cared for by nurses whose practice was grounded in Watson's theory of human caring caritas processes. Qualitative descriptive analysis revealed expressions of the caring moment lived as an intentional presence, within the context of the caritas processes to care for the infant and family, with loving-kindness, helping trusting relationship, creating caring healing environment, and allowing for hope and miracles.

Full textAbstract:
As most health care systems around the world are undergoing major administrative restructuring, we expose ourselves to the risk of dehumanizing patient care. If we are to consider caring as the core of nursing, nurses will have to make a conscious effort to preserve human caring within their clinical, administrative, educational, and/or research practice. Caring must not be allowed to simply wither away from our heritage.To help preserve this heritage, caring theories such as those from Jean Watson, Madeleine Leininger, Simone Roach, and Anne Boykin are vital. Through this continuing education paper we will learn the essential elements of Watson’s caring theory and explore an example of a clinical application of her work.

Thesis advisor: Jane M. Flanagan<br>Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore nurses’ experiences of Watson’s Theory of Human Caring Caritas Process Three: Cultivation of One’s Own Spiritual Practices and Transpersonal Self, Beyond Ego-Self. Background: There is currently an inadequacy of spiritual care provided to patients and families in the ICU despite a significant articulated need. Nurses report discomfort with and a lack of preparation in providing spiritual care competently. Nurses with strong personal spiritual development are more likely to report comfort with spiritual caregiving and provide spiritual care. Watson’s Theory of Human Caring Caritas Process Three; Cultivation of One’s Own Spiritual Practice and Transpersonal Self, Going Beyond Ego-Self makes explicit the primacy of relationship between nurse spiritual development and transpersonal spiritual nursing care. However, the nature of spiritual development of nurses in the ICU remains unknown. Methods: A qualitative descriptive methodology with directed content analysis applying Watson’s Caritas Process Three was used to analyze data for this study. Results: Ten ICU Nurses provided evidence of the experience of Caritas Process Three. Five themes were identified in the analysis of data: Caritas nurses vary in their ability to move beyond ego-self, Personal spiritual practices serve as a barrier and/or facilitator to nurses’ ability to provide spiritual care, Critical illness as experienced by patients and families provided the opportunity for nurses to explore spirituality with other, The care environment serves as a barrier and/or facilitator to nurses’ personal spiritual growth, and Cultivation of spiritual practice and spiritual identity is integral to a life-long process of consciousness evolution. Conclusions: The findings of this study extend and inform Caritas Process Three of Watson’s Theory of Human Caring. Nurses in this study provide evidence for the primacy of personal spiritual development for the delivery of spiritual and transpersonal care for patients in the ICU<br>Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2019<br>Submitted to: Boston College.

Este estudo teve como objetivos: analisar o conceito de Espiritualidade a partir da Teoria do Cuidado Transpessoal proposta por Jean Watson e Discutir as relações entre Experiências da Consciência (Espirituais), nos campos de interação denominados pela teorista de Momento Presente, Campo Fenomenológico e Ocasião Real de Cuidado. Método: foi utilizado a Análise de Clarificação de Conceito, proposto por Wilson. As seguintes etapas foram seguidas: 1. Isolar as questões de conceito; 2. Encontrar as respostas certas; 3. Casos Modelo; 4. Casos Contrários; 5. Casos Relacionados; 6. Casos de Difícil Diagnóstico; 7. Casos Inventados; 8. O Contexto Social; 9. Anseios Basilares; 10. Resultados Práticos e 11. Resultados na Linguagem. As questões norteadoras para análise foram: a) Qual a natureza da Espiritualidade no Cuidado Transpessoal? e b) Espiritualidade se difere de Materialidade nas relações de cuidado, uma vez que a primeira exigiria diferentes níveis de interação para que uma dimensão mais sutil pudesse ser acessada?. Resultados: na Teoria do Cuidado Humano a Espiritualidade é concebida como o Mundo do Espírito, experienciado através de um campo fenomenológico de interação entre dois Seres caracterizado pela ocorrência de Experiências da Consciência (ou espirituais). Na Teoria do Cuidado Humano os antecedentes para Espiritualidade foram: Alma/Espírito, caracterizado por: Imortalidade, Imaterialidade, Essência, Auto Conhecimento, Consciencia e Energia Criativa; Individualidade, configurada por Alma/Espirito e Transcendencia física, mental e emocional e, por fim, Experiências da Consciência, indicada por: Intuição, Experiencia Espiritual/Sobrenatural/Metafísica/Mística. Os atributos encontrados para acessar à dimensão espiritual foram os dez Clinical Caritas Process. Também verificou-se que o Processo Interacional Paciente-Profissional é direcionado a partir da triade: Mente-Corpo-Espirito onde os resultados esperados estão relacionados à ocorrência de Ocasião Real de Cuidado, percebida pela Conexão a partir das Histórias de Vida, Dilatação da Percepção do Campo Fenomênico, Rupturas na relação espaço-tempo, culminando na Transpessoalidade e Processo de Cuidado Humano, evidenciado pelo Contato Profundo com o Outro e Consigo, Uso de Linguagem Pertinente para Descrever a Experiencia Vivida e, por fim, Sistematização do Plano de Cuidados a Partir dos Dados Obtidos da Experiência.<br>This study aimed to analyze the concept of spirituality from Human Caring Theory by Jean Watson and Discuss the relationship between Experiences of Consciousness (Spiritual), in the interaction field called by theorist of \'Present Moment, \'Phenomenological Field\' and \'Actual Caring Occasion. Method: Wilsons concept clarification was used. The following steps were followed: 1. Isolate questions of concept 2. Find the right answers; 3.Model Case 4. Contrary Cases 5. Related Cases 6. Borderline 7. Invented Cases 8. Social Context 9. Underlying anxiety 10. Practical Results and 11. Results in language. The guiding questions for analysis were: a) What is the nature of Spirituality in Caring? b) Spirituality differs from materiality in relations of care, since the first would require different levels of interaction for a more subtle dimension could be accessed\'. Methodological steps performed this study concluded that: the Theory of Human Caring Spirituality is conceived as the World of Spirit, experienced through a phenomenological field of interaction between two beings characterized by the occurrence of experiences of consciousness (or spirit). In Human Care Theory were the background for Spirituality: Soul/Spirit, characterized by: Immortality, Immateriality, Essence, Self Knowledge, Consciousness, and Creative Energy, Individuality, set by Soul /Spirit and Transcendence physical, mental and emotional, and finally, Experiences of Consciousness, indicated by: Intuition, Experience Spiritual/ Supernatural / Metaphysical / Mystical. The attributes found to access the spiritual dimension were the ten Clinical Caritas Process. It was observed that the Patient Process-Interactional Professional is directed from the triad: Mind-Body-Spirit where the outcomes are related to the occurrence of Care Real Deal, the perceived connection from Life Stories, dilatation of Perception Field phenomenal, breaks in the space-time, culminating in transpersonal Process and Human Care, evidenced by the Deep Contact with the Other and I can, Use of Language Relevant to describe the experience and, finally, Systematization Plan of Care Data Obtained from Experience

Full textAbstract:
<p> This qualitative study critically examined nurses' perception of nursing qua nursing in an American Nurses Credentialing Center Magnet<sup>® </sup> re-designated healthcare system in Albany NY. Watson's Theory of Human Caring is used by many Magnet<sup>®</sup> hospitals, including the site for this study, to inform and guide nursing practice. Watson's Theory supports concepts and practices of integral health, holism, caring, healing, and the education and integration of complementary health care modalities as independent therapeutic nursing interventions. This study aimed to understand the nurse's emancipatory experience, comportment and self-agency as she/he participated in a theory guided practice; and illuminate the nurses' acquisition, understanding and utilization of knowledge and power as required for engaging independent therapeutic nursing interventions in the unitary-transformative health paradigm. </p><p> Eight nurses from the Oncology Unit self-selected to participate without recidivism from August to October 2012. The study was conducted in two parts: 1) A questionnaire was developed by the researcher to collect demographic and educational data from participants including: age, ethnicity, level of academic education, years of experience in nursing and in specialty, education to nursing theory, including education specifically to Watson's Theory of Human Caring and to holistic nursing and Complementary and Alternative Modalities (CAM), and CAM use in practice and self-care; and 2) Kim's (1999, 2007, 2010) Critical Narrative Inquiry Method was used to collect and analyze narrative data in three phases: 1) descriptive 2) reflective; and 3) critical-emancipatory. Written and audio data from in-person interviews were transcribed and analyzed by the researcher. Data was validated by participants and used to answer four research questions: 1) What are the emancipatory experiences of nurses in a Magnet<sup>®</sup> re-designated healthcare system that promotes Human Caring Theory; 2) What are the patterns that facilitate nurses' comportment and self-agency to fully embody and practice integral nursing qua nursing in a Magnet<sup>®</sup> re-designated healthcare system; 3) What are the patterns that create barriers to nurses' comportment and self-agency to fully embody and practice integral nursing qua nursing in a Magnet<sup> ®</sup> re-designated healthcare system; and 4) How does the organization support nurses control over their nursing practice within this one ANCC Magnet<sup> ®</sup> re-designated healthcare system? Findings gleaned from the patterns that occurred most frequently in the narrative data included: 1) Nurses used Human Caring and Integral Nursing theoretical concepts to inform and conduct their practice; even though they reported limited education to the theories. Elements of the theories that manifested in their practice and self-care included: advocating, educating, counseling, creating a caring-healing environment by honoring the patient and family's space and wishes, approaching patients and families non-judgmentally with an open mind and loving kindness, using complementary modalities of humor, prayer, intention, authentic presence, music, imagery, touch, and obtaining complementary therapy, palliative and spiritual care consults for patients; 2) Facilitators to practice included: the support of their manager, colleagues and team members, optimal staffing patterns, resource nurses and competent, self-motivated care technicians and support staff; and 3) Nurses in the study confirmed their Magnet<sup>®</sup> healthcare system values: a) Supportive and participative nursing management; b) Advanced education by providing tuition reimbursement and flexible scheduling; c) Participation in and use of the most current nursing research in their practice; and d) A strong nursing mentoring culture, where nurses empower each other to provide ethical care and advocate for patients' and nurses' rights. Opportunities for nursing education and leadership include: 1) The need to revise academic and continuing education curricula to adopt integral theory guided practice at all levels; 2) The need for advanced practice nurses to translate conceptual models into practice and help nurses to articulate the value and power of nursing to impact integral health and healing.</p><p> <b>Suggested Keywords:</b> nursing, holistic, integral, human caring, theory guided practice, emancipatory praxis, critical narrative inquiry, ANCC Magnet<sup>®</sup>.</p>

Full textAbstract:
Background: Pain is one of the most common and feared symptoms in palliative care and may cause suffering and reduced quality of life of the dying person. The pain has several different dimensions and is a subjective experience of each individual. How the nurse meets the palliative patient's pain is essential to good health of the patient, which allows a good and worthy death. Aim: The aim was to highlight nurses' experiences in meeting total pain in palliative care. Method: The literature review is based on ten scientific studies of which seven studies with a qualitative approach, a study using quantitative methods and two studies with mixed method. The studies included in the literature review has been reviewed and approved by an ethics committee. Searches were made in the databases MEDLINE and CINAHL Complete full text. Results: The results showed that nurses experienced difficulties to meet patients who experienced total pain. The nurses felt that they had insufficient knowledge and experience in meeting patients with total pain. The nurse worked much with existential conversation. Discussion: Nurses experienced an uncertainty in the face of existential questions, which is a difficult but important part of the work. This is discussed and anchored in Rosemarie Rizzo Parse nursing theory Human becoming along with the concept of caring.<br>Bakgrund: Smärta är ett av de vanligaste och mest fruktade symtomen i den palliativa vården och kan medföra lidande och försämrad livskvalitet hos den döende människan. Smärtan har flera olika dimensioner och är en subjektiv upplevelse hos varje enskild individ. Hur sjuksköterskan möter den palliativa patientens smärta är avgörande för en god vård av patienten vilket ger möjlighet till en god och värdig död. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att möta total smärta i palliativ vård. Metod: Litteraturöversikten baseras på tio vetenskapliga studier varav sju studier med kvalitativ metod, en studie med kvantitativ metod samt två studier med mixad metod. De studier som inkluderats i litteraturöversikten har granskats och godkänts av en etisk kommitté. Sökningar gjordes i databaserna Cinahl Complete och MEDLINE full text. Resultat: Resultatet visade att sjuksköterskor upplevde svårigheter att möta patienter som upplevde total smärta. Sjuksköterskorna upplevde sig ha bristande kunskap och erfarenhet av att möta patienter med total smärta. Sjuksköterskan arbetade mycket med existentiella samtal. Diskussion: Sjuksköterskor upplevde en osäkerhet i att möta existentiella frågor, vilket är en svår men viktig del i arbetet. Detta diskuteras och förankras i Rosmarie Rizzo Parses omvårdnadsteori Mänsklig tillblivelse tillsammans med begreppet vårdande.

Theoretical framework: The Theory of Human Caring by Jean Watson was used as a theoretical framework. Aim: The aim of this literature review was to describe the attitude of nursing patients who go through an induced abortion, from a nurse perspective. Method: This literature review is based on a sample of nine qualitative and quantitative studies, collected in the databases Cinahl, PubMed and PsycInfo. The qualities of the studies were assessed through modified templates. Analysis of the results from the studies was inspired of a content analysis. Findings: The nurses experienced their work as meaningful since they give support to the patient. The nurses felt that their work was justified when the decision to have an abortion was well thought through and they felt respect towards the patient when they were aware of the patient’s circumstances. The nurses experienced stress and emotional impact when they faced ethical dilemmas and contradictions to abortion. Conclusion: Nurses experience can affect how patients experience care. Many nurses feel that they do not get enough support to handle difficult situations that they encounter in their work. Nurses who experience a high level of support in the workplace perceive tasks as less demanding what leads to better treatment.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>世新大學<br>企業管理研究所(含碩專班)<br>106<br>Aging population and social structure change are the problems nowadays, as the probability for elders to go to hospitals by themselves increases. As a result, the need for technological care becomes a crises which has come quietly. Technological innovation must take users' psychological needs into consideration. By employing a qualitative approach for four groups: (A. People who are over 65 and still use technology B. People who are 65 and do not use technology C. People who are 55-65 and use technology D. People who are 55-65 and do not use technology). The researcher discusses how Watson's Caring Factors of Informational Technology Impact can be applied to usage intention and living quality among older adults. The research results are summarized in the following points:
1. “The cultivation of sensitivity to one’s self and to others”,“The systematic use of the scientific problem solving method for decision making”,“The allowance for existential-phenomenological forces” effect on all the groups in Usage Intention but the Living Quality part just not effect on group A.
2. “The formation of a humanistic-altruistic system of values”,“The assistance with gratification of human needs”,“Development of a helping-trust relationship”,“The promotion and acceptance of the expression of positive and negative feelings”,“The promotion of transpersonal teaching-learning”,“The provision of supportive, protective, and corrective mental, physical, societal, and spiritual environment” effect on group B and D in Usage Intention.
3. “The instillation of faith-hope” effects on the female group in Usage Intention but the Living Quality part just effects on group C.
4. “The formation of a humanistic-altruistic system of values” effects on group B and D in Living Quality.
5. “The assistance with gratification of human needs”,“The provision of supportive, protective, and corrective mental, physical, societal, and spiritual environment” effect on all the groups in Living Quality.
6. “The promotion of transpersonal teaching-learning” just effects on group C in Living Quality.
7. “Development of a helping-trust relationship”,“The promotion and acceptance of the expression of positive and negative feelings” do not effect on group C in Living Quality.
To conclude, the research results suggest that the government should try its best to promote the use of technology to the aged people by careful explanation, training, and guidance. It would be easier for older people to benefit from technological training courses in nurseries for the aged and other long-term care centers, ten years earlier for each age groups.

AbstractWe are living in a time of profound disruption and planetary crises which is calling on all of us to show up and make a contribution that serves the wellbeing of all. A central aspect of making such a contribution is the capacity to shift our mindsets towards more caring, inclusive, and interdependent perspectives. This chapter explores mindsets in an educational context. We begin with a general overview of mindset theory and examine the relationship between mindsets and the unfolding of human potential. Then we explore fixed and growth mindset theory in education, which is primarily focused on learning, achievement, and improvement. Next, we evolve this focus to include benefit mindset theory, which integrates leadership, contribution, and transformation, and focuses on how we can recognise our interdependence with the living Earth community, turn towards our individual and collective shadows, and realise our unique potential in a way that serves the wellbeing of all. We include a table of 10 mindset transformations, and we invite scholars and educators to explore implications.

CSR has been a widely-researched concept during the last three decades. However, there is no agreement on its definition or its dimensions; antecedents and consequences and there is no comprehensive model for its analysis. The origins of CSR lie in philanthropy and the highest level of CSR is considered to involve philanthropic actions. CSR is a people-caring concept that is incorporated in firms' strategy. Strategic CSR is based on stakeholder theory and is used to provide competitive advantages through product or brand differentiation. Although there have been many efforts to measure the effectiveness of CSR, there is no single way of assessing CSR performance. Also, effective CSR communication is a very important matter for firms and although there is a lot of research on this subject, the debate is still on regarding what to say; through which channels, and how to say it in order to avoid consumer scepticism and reap strategic benefits. Based on this analysis, emergent themes of research are identified in this chapter and areas of further research are proposed.

Chapter 6 looks at where charitable emergency food provision fits into responsibilities to respect, protect and fulfil the human right to food. It employs a theory of care ethics to explore the nature of need for emergency food provision and how providers define success within these systems. Whilst need and success are often spoken of in immediate terms (crisis and meeting immediate need) this in fact belies the more nuanced appreciation organisations have for the complex circumstances which underpin need for emergency food and how they understand the impact of their projects on recipients’ lives. The chapter goes on to discuss the ways in which emergency food providers are assuming responsibility for caring for the hungry with mixed feelings. It places these findings within the context of care ethics approaches which see care as structural and public and discusses how these endeavours could be interpreted as privatised care, fitting within wider neo-liberal shifts. The chapter concludes that in line with care ethics approaches, the right to food framework indicates that there might be a particular role for emergency food providers, in relation to political engagement and utilising the power of their collective voice.

The experiences and marginalisation of international organisation employees with caring responsibilities has a direct negative impact on the type of security and justice being built in conflict-affected environments. This is in large part because international organisations fail to respond to the needs of those with caring responsibilities, which leads to their early departure from the field, and negatively affects their work while in post. In this toolkit we describe this problem, the exacerbating factors, and challenges to overcoming it. We offer a theory of change demonstrating how caring for carers can both improve the working conditions of employees of international organisations as well as the effectiveness, inclusivity and responsiveness of peace and justice interventions. This is important because it raises awareness among employers in the sector of the severity of the problem and its consequences. We also offer a guide for employers for how to take the caring responsibilities of their employees into account when developing human resource policies and practices, designing working conditions and planning interventions. Finally, we underscore the importance of conducting research on the gendered impacts of the marginalisation of employees with caring responsibilities, not least because of the breadth and depth of resultant individual, organisational and sectoral harms. In this regard, we also draw attention to the way in which gender stereotypes and gender biases not only inform and undermine peacebuilding efforts, but also permeate research in this field. Our toolkit is aimed at international organisation employees, employers and human resources personnel, as well as students and scholars of peacebuilding and international development. We see these communities of knowledge and action as overlapping, with insights to be brought to bear as well as challenges to be overcome in this area. The content of the toolkit is equally relevant across these knowledge communities as well as between different specialisms and disciplines. Peacebuilding and development draw in experts from economics, politics, anthropology, sociology and law, to name but a few. The authors of this toolkit have come together from gender studies, political science, and development studies to develop a theory of change informed by interdisciplinary insights. We hope, therefore, that this toolkit will be useful to an inclusive and interdisciplinary set of knowledge communities. Our core argument - that caring for carers benefits the individual, the sectors, and the intended beneficiaries of interventions - is relevant for students, researchers, policy makers and practitioners alike.
