Chapter 5: Early Conceptualizations About Nursing
Let us review the works of Wiedenbach (conceptualizations of nursing), Henderson (who believed in the categorizations of functions that pertained to patient care), and Hall (who envisioned three overlapping circles of care – person, body, and disease from crisis to rehabilitation) that introduced the nursing theory and explore the importance of nurse-patient relationships (Smith & Parker 2015).
Chapter 6: Nurse-Patient Relationship Theories
This reading assignment focuses on conceptualizations by Travelbee, a former nursing educator, (who practiced psychiatric/mental health care) that serves as a framework that delineates the nurse-patient interaction. Remembering that patients or clients are exceptional and nursing care is delivered across several stages (Smith & Parker, 2015).
