Nurses’ Behaviors, Perceived as caring Behaviors by the Patients
Journal Title: International Journal of Physical and Social Sciences (IJPSS) - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
The affinity of caring to nursing is shown in following quote ―Caring is nursing and Nursing is Caring‖. It is not modern notion, but can be dated back to the time of Florence Nightingale. Instead of strong association between nursing and caring, relative little attention has been directed toward the study of the care. The environments in which nurses render the services are one, which suffers from scarcity of the nursing staffs, over workload and limited resources in the ward to perform various nursing activity in the ward. These all affects on quality nursing services. Today most of the economically affordable patients prefer private hospital because they give one of the reasons of non-caring behavior of the nursing staffs in Government hospitals. In order for the profession of nursing to meet its social obligation to provide a ―Caring relationship‖ in which our services are given, we must explore what constitutes a caring relationship for our patient. So there must be need to explore the which kind of nurses’ behavior perceived as caring behavior by the patients.
