Resumen de Hearing the Voice of Nurses in Caring Theory-Based Practice
Susan MacLeod Dyess, Anne Boykin, Mary Jo Bulfin
The authors in this paper describe the process and findings of a participatory action research project between a college of nursing and a for-profit acute healthcare organization as practice environment transformation occurred, grounded in caring theory. The participatory action research process and findings emphasize the importance of the intention to know what matters and the required time, courage, and commitment necessary to actualize practice environments that support nursing.
Implications show efforts to develop and sustain theory-based practice environments that enable the full expression of nursing and a way of being that honors and celebrates the uniqueness of nurses.
