NUR.1030 Holistic Nursing Theory

Selected concepts, philosophy and theory pertinent to the practice of professional nursing are explored as it applies to the theory of human caring, transcultural nursing and caritas process. Caritas factors and processes are explored in order to form a deeper understanding of transpersonal and transcultural caring and lay the foundation for caring science and practice. Nursing philosophy and theory is addressed as the framework for practice. The caring science foundation intersects with the arts and humanities allowing for open space to allow the evolved human consciousness to articulate a personal philosophy of nursing.
