The Nature of Suffering and the Goals of Nursing

ISBN: 9780195333121 出版年：2011 页码：140 Ferrell, Betty R Coyle, Nessa Oxford University Press

The essence of nursing care continually exposes nurses to suffering. Although they bear witness to the suffering of others, their own suffering is less frequently exposed. This volume attempts to give voice to the suffering that nurses witness in patients, families, colleagues, and themselves. By making this suffering visible, the authors wish to honor it and to learn from it.
