The experience of being listened to for older adults living in long-term care facilities was explored using a qualitative descriptive method outlined in Parse (2001), with the human becoming theory as the theoretical framework. The themes that emerged from this study--Nurturing Contentment, Vital Genuine Connections, and Deference Triumphs Mediocrity--affirmed the experience of being listened to as fundamental to the participants' quality of life. The findings expand nursing theory, provide enhanced understanding of the experience of being listened to, and offer ideas for future research. Through the voices of older adults participating in this study, the authors learn how critical listening is to quality care, and thus to excellence in nursing practice.
采用Parse（2001年）概述的质性描述方法，以“人成为理论”为理论框架，探讨了居住在长期护理机构中的老年人被倾听的经历。本研究中出现的主题——培养满足感、建立重要的真实联系以及尊重战胜平庸——证实了被倾听的经历对参与者生活质量至关重要。这些发现扩展了护理理论，增进了对被倾听经历的理解，并为未来研究提供了思路。通过参与本研究的老年人的声音，作者们了解到倾听对于优质护理以及卓越护理实践是多么关键。
