Pediatric nurses often struggle to define their advocacy role with patients and their families. Nursing is based on the therapeutic use of self and caring. An unclear therapeutic relationship can undermine nurses' advocacy efforts. Nurses are encouraged but often not guided about staying within the parameters that define a professional and therapeutic relationship between the nurses and the patient/family. Examining the impact of unclear boundaries on the patient/family relationship and the nurse's ability to serve as an advocate provides the basis for suggested constructive strategies for addressing the related issues.
儿科护士常常难以界定自己在为患者及其家属提供支持方面所扮演的角色。护理工作基于自我的治疗性运用和关怀。不明确的治疗关系会破坏护士的支持工作。护士受到鼓励，但在界定护士与患者/家属之间专业且具治疗性的关系的界限内行事方面，往往缺乏指导。审视界限不明确对患者/家属关系以及护士作为支持者能力的影响，为提出解决相关问题的建设性策略提供了依据。
