Changing to a caring paradigm for teaching and learning.

Abstract

Nephrology nurses have tended to use behavioral strategies to teach people about their diseases and treatments. However, in this article, nurses are encouraged to shift to a caring paradigm for teaching individuals with end stage renal disease. The key concepts in this paradigm include: caring, phenomenology, multiple realities, empowerment, and health promotion. Specific suggestions for planning teaching and learning activities, and evaluating learning in the new paradigm are provided.

Envisioning nursing in 2050 through the eyes of nurse theorists: Leininger and Watson.

Madeleine Leininger and Jean Watson envision how their theoretical ideas will be expressed in the world in 2050. Leininger explains how her theory and ethnoresearch methodology have given rise to transcultural nursing and the culture care nursing paradigm and predicts that they will continue to contribute to culturally congruent care practices that promote health, healing, quality of life, and even world peace. Watson provides a vision based on an emergent perspective that emphasizes subjective dimensions related to self-knowledge, self-control, self-caring, and self-healing potential; spirit and wholeness of being/becoming; natural healing approaches; and caring, healing relationships with self and others.
