The classical notions of 'virtue' and 'leisure' offer excellent insights into the essentially moral nature of medical practice. This is especially evident in the understanding that professional caregiving has the potential to enhance the moral character as well as the moral awareness of the practitioner. Reflective awareness of the moral nature of the caregiving process can also contribute to coping with negative stress, which almost always has its origins in frustrations rooted in moral quandaries and evaluations. Understanding the process required arises from implementation of caregiving in combination with deliberate, conscious development of spiritual awareness and reflection on moral meaning.
“美德”和“闲适”的传统观念为洞察医疗实践的本质道德特性提供了绝佳视角。这一点在以下认识中尤为明显，即专业护理有潜力提升从业者的道德品质和道德意识。对护理过程道德本质的反思性认知也有助于应对负面压力，而负面压力几乎总是源于道德困境和评估中的挫折。理解所需的过程源自护理实践与有意识地培养精神意识以及对道德意义的反思相结合。
