Response to a column on caring and staffing struck a cord with Nursing Economic$ readers worldwide. Measuring caring is complicated and a healthy debate exists over how exactly to do it. The extraordinary work of Dr. Jean Watson is an excellent resource for understanding how to measure and monitor caring. Beneath the instruments for measuring caring sits foundational work that can help us clarify and understand the topic of caring and just where it sits in our philosophies, intentions, patient care models, and care delivery systems.
对一篇关于关怀与人员配置的专栏文章的回应引起了全球《护理经济学》读者的共鸣。衡量关怀是复杂的,关于究竟如何衡量存在着激烈的争论。让·沃森博士的杰出工作是理解如何衡量和监测关怀的绝佳资源。在衡量关怀的工具背后,有一些基础性工作可以帮助我们阐明和理解关怀这一主题,以及它在我们的理念、意图、患者护理模式和护理提供系统中所处的位置。
