Health Values. 1984 May-Jun;8(3):12-5.
Technology is increasing. "The most stable characteristic of the present health care system, is change, characterized by expansion and experimentation . . ." To date, nursing has taken a reactive role, adapting out of necessity rather than taking an active part in initiating or promoting specific change. Consequently the health care system has had and continues to have a greater impact on nursing than nursing on the health care system. Two hypothetical frameworks, humanistic and technological, are presented with which to approach the problem of increasing technology. The values and implications of each are examined within the context of the nursing profession.
技术在不断发展。“当前医疗保健系统最稳定的特征就是变化，其特点是扩张和试验……”到目前为止，护理一直处于被动应对的角色，出于必要而进行调整，而非积极主动地发起或推动具体变革。因此，医疗保健系统对护理的影响一直且仍将大于护理对医疗保健系统的影响。本文提出了两种假设框架，即人文主义框架和技术框架，用以探讨技术不断增加的问题。并在护理专业的背景下审视了每种框架的价值观及影响。
