Caring Matters Most is a compact, highly readable book that explores the ethical nature of daily nursing practice and gives readers a path for being better nurses through the cultivation of five habits: trustworthiness, imagination, beauty, space, and presence. This book is an ideal resource for academic or practicing nurses interested in healthcare ethics or philosophy.
Through an exploration of the ethical nature of nursing, Caring Matters Most asserts that the act of nursing itself embodies goodness. Nurses can develop this moral character in themselves by cultivating five habits: trustworthiness, imagination, beauty, space, and presence. Practicing these habits will sustain nurses as they meet the challenges of the workplace, the threat of automation, and the incivilities that arise within the nursing community. The volume concludes with thought-provoking discussion questions and exercises designed to help nurses apply concepts in the classroom or in practice. Each chapter combines highly readable explanations of moral theory with real-life examples that can guide nurses in day-to-day practice. Caring Matters Most is an ideal resource for academic or practicing nurses interested in healthcare ethics or philosophy.
