  Title Interpreting the phenomenology of out-of-town hospitalisation using a Heideggerian framework Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Vision: A Journal of Nursing Abbreviated Journal Available online from Eastern Institute of Technology  
  Volume 11 Issue (up) 17 Pages 20-25  
  Keywords Nursing research; Patient satisfaction  
  Abstract This article is presented in two parts. In the first, an outline of Heidegger's approach to phenomenology is offered. A basic premise of hermeneutic phenomenology is that people make sense of the world through the narratives they tell to themselves and to others. When the researcher uses this philosophical approach, persons communicate their experiences; the researcher interprets the experience and communicates that understanding in writing. In the second part of the paper, the experiences of four people whose partners were hospitalised out of town is described.
