This article aims to clarify the concept of "holism" in nursing through the use of Rodgers [Rodgers, B.L., 1989. Concept analysis and the development of nursing knowledge; the evolutionary cycle. Journal of Advanced Nursing 14, 330-335] concept analysis framework.
The primary author is employed in a urology department which cares for many clients with end stage cancer. Holistic nursing practice is the philosophy of the unit, however many nurses struggle to articulate what holistic practice actually means to them, hence this analysis was deemed very pertinent to practicing nurses to enable the realization of nurses therapeutic potential when caring for patients in practice.
Rodgers (1989) well-established method of concept analysis was employed to facilitate the clarification of the concept of holistic nursing practice.
The clarification of the concept offered a working definition of holistic nursing practice which practicing nurses can clearly comprehend and avail of when caring for patients of all race, religion and creed in the clinical practice area.
By undertaking this methodology of concept analysis the integrity of the concept was kept intact. The factors that influence holistic nursing practice were identified and a model case demonstrated the reality of holistic nursing care for practicing nurses.
本文旨在通过运用罗杰斯[罗杰斯，B.L.，1989年。概念分析与护理知识的发展；进化周期。《高级护理杂志》14，330 - 335]的概念分析框架，阐明护理领域中“整体论”的概念。
第一作者就职于泌尿外科，该科室照料许多晚期癌症患者。整体护理实践是该科室的理念，然而许多护士难以清晰阐述整体护理实践对他们而言究竟意味着什么，因此该分析被认为对执业护士非常有意义，有助于在实际护理患者时实现护士的治疗潜力。
采用罗杰斯（1989年）成熟的概念分析方法，以促进对整体护理实践概念的澄清。
该概念的澄清提供了整体护理实践的实用定义，执业护士在临床实践中照料所有种族、宗教和信仰的患者时能够清晰理解并加以运用。
通过采用这种概念分析方法，该概念的完整性得以保持。确定了影响整体护理实践的因素，一个典型案例向执业护士展示了整体护理的实际情况。
