Summary

Faith community nursing (FCN) is a healthcare delivery method focused on holistic client care. This evolutionary analysis defines FCN

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Healthcare Delivery
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Faith community nursing (FCN) has evolved as a complex healthcare delivery system in the USA.
  • Increasing healthcare costs and emphasis on access/prevention have expanded FCN's scope beyond traditional settings.
  • Faith communities and healthcare organizations invest in FCN, supported by standardized training programs.

Observation:

  • Rodgers' evolutionary analysis was employed to examine the antecedents, attributes, and consequences of FCN.
  • A comprehensive literature search across multiple disciplines (medicine, education, religion, nursing) was conducted.
  • 124 research and theoretical articles were analyzed to understand the concept's historical and social context.

Findings:

  • A theoretical definition of FCN was established: a relationship-centered healthcare method for holistic client well-being.
