Educating for care: a review of the literature
1University of Sheffield, UK.
Abstract:
Given that nursing is a practice-based discipline with care and caring at the core, it can be argued that these two elements should be fundamental concepts within the nursing curriculum. With the ever-increasing use of health care technology it is, however, possible that caring theory as an underpinning concept could be omitted from the curriculum. This literature review explores the issues surrounding student nurses' understanding of what care means to them, and considers the process of conveying the meaning and practice of care to the student nurse. Through reviewing the main theme of Education for Care, the question 'Is it possible to teach "care" to students?' will be explored.
