Caring Science
Caring Science is a theoretical framework developed by Jean Watson, focusing on the importance of caring in nursing and healthcare. It emphasizes the human connection between caregivers and patients, highlighting how compassion and empathy can enhance healing and well-being. The framework encourages healthcare professionals to integrate caring practices into their daily routines.
At its core, Caring Science promotes a holistic approach to health, considering not just physical ailments but also emotional and spiritual needs. This perspective fosters a supportive environment where patients feel valued and understood, ultimately leading to improved health outcomes and patient satisfaction.
