Article Abstract:

Responsive use of self by the nurse can enable that person to understand the lives of clients and to help them to increase strengths and connections to a responsive community. An interpretive study involving 25 nurses looked at the expertise, often unrecognized, in the everyday practice of community nursing. The nurses were asked to talk about clinical situations using group and individual interviews. Observation notes of clinical situations and transcribed interviews were analyzed.

Implications of nursing taxonomies for middle-range theory development

Article Abstract:

Nursing scientists can develop middle-range theories using established nursing diagnoses (NANDA), nursing interventions (NIC) and nursing outcomes (NOC) taxonomies. The knowledge base of nursing is moving from reliance on scientific facts to research tools which prioritize those facts. Theories developed from the taxonomies make nursing knowledge explicit as well as accessible.
