Poster Title: Holistic Caring in Professional Nursing Practice
Section 1: Holistic Philosophy
Philosophy: Jean Watson’s Philosophy of Human Caring
Definition: This philosophy emphasizes the integration of mind, body, and spirit in nursing care, focusing on the relational, empathetic, and healing aspects of patient care. It values human dignity, interconnectedness, and the therapeutic potential of caring relationships.
Application in Practice:
-
Nurses can apply this philosophy by actively listening to patients, providing presence and compassionate care, and attending to spiritual and emotional needs alongside physical treatment.
-
Example: When caring for a post-operative patient, a nurse might incorporate guided breathing exercises and reflective conversation to address both emotional and physical recovery.
