This is an excellent reminder in this time of overly managed care
Jean Watson has really articulated what nursing is about. She describes her theory of caring very clearly. She has reawakened my passion for nursing. She really challenges nurses to reflect on their individual interactions with patient. This is an excellent reminder in this time of overly managed care, where there is so much pressure to accomplish tasks and forget about "caring" for the patient. I do not agree with the more New Age aspects of the theory, but the main premise, which is "caring" is very powerful. Jean Watson is a treasure.

The value of caring in Nursing for yesterday , today and tomorrow
Jean Watson is not only a top Nursing Theorist but her writing illuminates the way forward for humanity as well through caring about each other as individuals and uniting our cultures in love and caring as a whole. This being a seminal work on Nursing as Caring has an updated version of her brilliant thesis. Her steps are now Caritas processes and can be utilised to guide everyday nursing in any domain. Palliative Nurses would be able to glean plenty from Jean's amazing work which lives on internationally

Wonderful book
Format: Paperback
This is a great book for those who are interested in looking at the caring side of nursing. We are so caught up in the science, that sometimes people forget that they are taking care of human beings. I would recommend this book to anyone that is a nurse or is thinking about becoming a nurse, and even for any health care practitioner. Jean Watson is amazing, her philosophies can be applied to your every day life. And it also causes the practitioner to focus on their own life, which is very key in being a successful practitioner.
