Title The relational core of nursing practice as partnership Type Journal Article
Year (down) Publication Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 47 Issue 3 Pages 241-250
Keywords Nurse-patient relations; Nursing philosophy; Nursing research
Abstract This article elaborates the meaning of partnership in practice for nurses practising in different and complementary way to nurses in specialist roles and medical practitioners. It positions partnership as the relational core of nursing practice. Partnership is presented as an evolving dialogue between nurse and patient, which is characterised by open, caring, mutually responsive and non-directive approaches. This partnership occurs within a health system that is dominated by technologically-driven, prescriptive, and outcome-oriented approaches. It is the second of a series of articles written as a partnership between nurse scholars from Iceland, NZ and USA.
