From the Paper:
"One of the most commonly held descriptions of nursing is that of a 'caring profession'. Within the nursing literature, there are numerous different descriptions and definitions given of the term 'caring', with numerous theories of the concept such as those of Watson, Leininger and Swanson. Morse and colleagues (1990, cited in Spichiger et al., 2005) conceptualize caring as a human trait, a moral ideal, an interpersonal relationship and a therapeutic intervention."Sample of Sources Used:
