Phenomenology
- study of meaning of phenomenon to a particular individual
HUMANISTIC NURSING"Humanistic nursing embraces more than a
benevolent technically competent subject-object one-way relationship guided by
nursing behalf of another. Rather it dictates that nursing is a responsible searching, transactional relationship
whose meaningfulness demands conceptualization founded on a nurse's
existential awareness of self and of other" (Paterson and Zderad, 2008)
Humanistic
nursing theory is multidimensional (Kleiman, 2001)

Phenomenologic Nursology
-Develop by Paterson and Zderad-methodology for understanding and describing
nursing situations-assumes a perceived health need by an individual
who is involved in an interaction with a health care provider.
-Concerned with the nature of the facts and what they mean to individual..
-describes phenomena but does not attempt to explain or predict their occurrence.
Paterson and Zderad describe
five phases in their study of nursing:
1.) Preparation of the nurse knower for
coming to know2.) Nurse knowing the other intuitively3.) Nurse knowing the other
scientifically4.) Nurse Complimentary Synthesizing
Known others5.) Succession with the nurse from the
many to the paradoxical one.
Preparation of the nurse knower for coming to know
-understanding own viewpoint/angle helps make sense and aid in acquiring meaning of experience
-By identifying own views they can be withheld, so that they do not interfere with one's attempts to describe the experiences of another.
-By being open to new and different ideas/understandings is a necessary of another
-Being open to new and different ideas/understanding is a necessary position in being able to get to know the other intuitively.
Nurse knowing the other intuitively
- "moving back and forth between the impressions the nurse becomes aware of herself and the recollected real experience of the other" (Paterson and Zderad, 1976)
- dialogue back and forth between patient and nurse allows for clearer understanding further generalization in developing process
Nurse knowing the other scientifically
-Implies need for objectivity in coming to know the other scientifically-Reflective practice validates patterns and themes-"This is the time when the nurse mulls over, analyses, sorts out, compares, contrasts, relates, interprets, gives names to and categories
Nurse Complimentary Synthesizing Known others
-The ability of the nurse to develop or see themselves as a source of knowledge, to continually develop the nursing community through education, and increased understanding of their owned learned experiences.
Succession with the nurse from the many to the paradoxical
one.-"Nurse comes up with a conception or abstraction that is inclusive of and beyond the multiplicities and contradictions“
- Process that allows reflection, correction and expansion of own angular interpretation
- Implies universal understanding from the simplest to the most complex dialogue and interactions between the nurse and assimilates patient experience is the same as before
-Coming together of patient and nurse
Nursing ProcessStep 1
-assessment-collection of subjective and objective
data - through observation,
interaction, and information from the other sources.
Step 2-Diagnosing
-make a problem statement
Step 3-planning and implementation
-nursing process describes a goal or outcome to be reached by the client with steps to accomplish toward the goal.
Step 4-Evaluation
-Phase of nursing process is deciding whether the client behavior has change as measured by the goals and objectives.
Paterson and Zderad’s Work
and the Characteristic of
Theory
1.) Theories can interrelate concept in such a way as
to create a different way of looking at a particular
phenomenon.
2.) Theories must be logical in
nature
3.) Theories should be logical in nature.
4.) Theories can be the bases for hypotheses that can be tested or
for theory to be generated.
5.) Theories contribute to
and assist in increasing the general body of
knowledge within the discipline through the
research implemented to validate them.
6.) Theories can be used by practitioners to
guide and improve their practice.
7.) Theories must be consistent with other
validated theories, laws, and principles but will leave open unanswered
questions that need investigation.
