Introduction to Research

Peter Crosta M.A (2014) says that nursing is a healthcare profession focused on caring for the service user and their families giving the best possible quality of care to a service user no matter their condition until death. It will allow the service user to recover from illness, control their illness or reach an optimal status of health that they can control. Hunt et al (1994) suggests that the profession of a nurse would place great importance on nurse training and states that a nurse cannot be competent at something unless they have specific training on an area.

I define my philosophy of nursing within the three nursing domains of person, health, and environment. My goal is to communicate the importance of nursing as a knowledge-based career, depending not only on the nurse fulfilling her role but also on the patient’s compliance. A patient must learn to provide self-care at home in the same capacity as the nurse would provide care in the clinical setting. I discuss various subjects within nursing. I explain why I want to be a nurse, what I believe a nurse’s role is, the different domains of nursing, and where I believe nursing will be in the future. My philosophy demonstrates the interdependence of the nursing domains. You cannot fully evaluate a person without evaluating their health,

I already knew that Nursing is a health care profession that involves taking care of another person in which a person needs the formal education and training in the art of science of nursing. Nurses help individuals, families, and groups to achieve health and prevent diseases, and they care for the sick and injured using procedures based on

Nursing is a privileged profession to understand the contrast between different societies and individuals. Nursing is unique in that it closely involved individuals and their personal events.

Nursing is the protection, promotion, and optimization of health and abilities, prevention of illness and injury, alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and treatment of human response, and advocacy in the care of individuals, families, communities, and populations.

Nursing was not always seen as a profession, therefore it is important to explore what a profession is and its historical context related to nursing. Turkoski (1995) states that profession is a social construct that was determined by a male worldview; only men were

According to Angela Barron, “A nurse is someone who alleviates pain, fastens healing and advocates for individuals or families.” The role of a nurse is between the patient and the doctor, for this good communication skills and patience are needed. Being a nurse is a job that will give you satisfaction and a feeling of accomplishment, making a difference and helping others.

19). Nursing is caring for others with love and compassion to promote health, prevent illness, and restore health (Current Nursing, 2012).

My philosophy dwells on the definition of nursing, according to Kearney-Nunnery (2016), nursing is defined by “its activities, goals and services” (Kearney-Nunnery, 2016, p. 3). In

Nursing is the protection, promotion, and optimization of health and abilities, prevention of illness and injury, alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and treatment of human response, and advocacy in the care of individuals, families, communities, and populations. There are different topics that can be related to the nursing field like health care, health administration, and health services.

Nursing to many may be considered as a job solely for the purpose of earning money. However, I personally consider nursing to be a way of life rather than a career. As a nurse, duties like treating medical emergencies, observing and recording patients behavior and so on are required, however, I consider those duties as surface level requirements for a nurse. In my opinion, nursing is a job where one is required to take immense care for patients while showing compassion and empathy foe what ones patient might be going through. For one to be able to serve their patients effectively in this way, patience and tolerance as unforeseen situations are bound to happen in a profession as nursing.

1. Nursing as a practice-oriented discipline – Nursing exists to provide nursing care for clients who experience illness, as well as for those who may experience potential health problems. When we say that nursing is a practice-oriented discipline, we simply mean that nursing has a primary mission related to practice. Its members seek knowledge of what nurses as professionals do, why they do it and when they do it. Basic understanding of various

Nursing is the definition of knowing how to care for a person, health, and the environment. Nursing is a constant changing profession that strives to deliver progressive patient-centered care. James Hinton, a British physician, argued that a nurse would not only benefit patients in her care, but provide the foundation

After reading the few parts of the module presented in theoretical foundations of nursing. Indeed, nursing is not only described as a profession. It is a noble profession, nursing is caring, an art, a science, a client centered, holistic, adaptive, and concerned

Practice, theory, and research are three main components that help to define nursing. Nursing practice consists of many things such as being “a caregiver, advocate, educator, communicator and provider of care” (Potter, 2015 p. 6). Professional nursing practice and knowledge have developed in part through nursing theories that help to predict and describe actives for the practice of nursing.
