Abstract The general expectation that patients should be willing to trust nurses is rarely explored or challenged despite claims of diminishing public trust in social and professional institutions. Everyday meanings of trust take account of circumstance and suggest that our understanding of what it means to trust is contextually bound. However, in the context of health care, to trust implies a particular understanding which becomes apparent when abuses of this trust are reported and acknowledged as scandals. The predominant assumption in the literature that trust is something that occurs between equally competent adults cannot explain trust in nursing precisely because of the unequal power relationships between patients on the one hand and healthcare professionals on the other. Moreover, the tendency to conflate terms such as trust, reliance, confidence and so on suggests that confusion permeates discussions of trust in nursing. In this paper, I argue in support of Annette Baier's requirement of good will (or lack of ill will) as the essential feature of trust, and outline how this account (i) enables us to make the necessary distinctions between trust on the one hand and 'trust pretenders' on the other; and (ii) lays the foundations for understanding trust in relationships, such as those between patients and nurses, where power differentials exist. 相似文献

This paper focuses on nursing research and its management in Britain, examining the roles of nurse managers, researchers, clinicians and educationalists in this context. The background to commissioning health research within the Department of Health (formerly Department of Health and Social Security) is outlined together with the main milestones in NHS based research from the 1970s until the present time. Emphasis is returned to nursing research through a systematic literature search of the most popular British nursing journals, over 18 months (Nursing Times, Nursing Standard, Senior Nurse and lournal of Advanced Nursing), exploring various aspects of research management. Comparative material is drawn from the American nursing journals, the lournal of Nursing Administration and Nursing Management. The article is concluded with reference to challenges presented in Research for Health (The Strategy for Research and Development in the NHS 1991) and in the forthcoming Strategy for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting Research. Emphasis is placed on strengthened collaboration between nurse managers, researchers, clinicians and educationists, in order to fulfil the aims established for research in all sectors of the NHS and, particularly, within nursing research. 相似文献

Aim To elicit nurses' accounts of their involvement with nursing research and their interpretations of the meaning of these projects for their practice.
Background The links between research and practice development in health care are poorly understood and require further exploration in the light of the emerging research and development agenda within the National Health Service.
Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 qualified nurses working on a Nursing Development Unit. The interviews were tape recorded, transcribed and analysed thematically.
Findings Data analysis identified two distinct groups—a core group of nurses actively engaged in the research projects and a peripheral group involved in data collection. The characteristics of the core group mirror the characteristics of those involved in non-research-based practice development activities.
Conclusions Engaging in research activities does not always result in the development of practice, however, there appears to be a link between practice development and critical thinking. 相似文献

The limitations of keratometry and photokeratoscopy are briefly discussed. A new photogrammetric technique of measuring corneal topography is described. Contours and cross-sections of abnormal corneas are presented to illustrate the scope and application of the new technique. 相似文献

Several quality of life instruments were considered for use in a Greek mental health environment. Subjective Quality of Life Profile was chosen as it was easy to complete and covered the issues raised by patients with schizophrenia through interviews. Confirmatory factor analysis gave credence to the four-dimensional structure identified by the original authors. Patients with schizophrenia were generally satisfied with their quality of life, found the items in the instrument important and were optimistic about expectations for change. Age, gender, education, marital status and years of sickness were not statistically significant in a general linear model with quality of life as the outcome for the 27 core questions. There were some statistically significant results for the three disease-specific questions; positive expectation was correlated positively with education and negatively with years of sickness. 相似文献

Educational games have been shown to be effective in supporting learning, especially to reinforce knowledge, and students are generally positive about the use of games. The aim of this mixed-methods study that was conducted in the UK was to explore educators' views towards the use of educational games in the health sciences. The data were collected via semistructured interviews with 13 health educators and an online survey that was completed by 97 health educators. Three factors influence the use of classroom games: reflective practice, the impact of games on students, and the impact of logistical factors. Educators assess their own performance and the impact of the games on students when planning their use; however, large classes and the need for preparation time have a negative impact on educators' willingness to use games. Similar constraints might restrict the use of active learning strategies, such as simulation, that are crucial for enabling health professionals to develop competence. These issues require consideration when planning educational methods. 相似文献
