Nursing is considered both an art and a science, yet the nature of art and science has been historically depicted as two distinct fields of inquiry in the health professions. To meet the health challenges of the future, blending science and art through nursing theory, research, and practice is critical. This article describes how nurses in a master's of nursing program at Dalhousie University broke with tradition for the practicum course to articulate and apply the theoretical elements of knowing using aesthetic inquiry. The challenge was in articulating and guiding students through the theory of aesthetic knowing, the linkages with the fine arts, and the conceptualization of nursing art.
护理被视为一门艺术和一门科学，但从历史上看，艺术和科学的本质在卫生专业中一直被描述为两个不同的研究领域。为应对未来的健康挑战，通过护理理论、研究和实践将科学与艺术融合至关重要。本文描述了达尔豪斯大学护理学硕士项目中的护士们如何在实践课程中打破传统，运用美学探究来阐述和应用认知的理论要素。挑战在于阐述美学认知理论、与美术的联系以及护理艺术的概念化，并引导学生理解这些内容。
