  • Title: Revitalizing the humanistic imperative in nursing education.
    Author: Kleiman S.
    Journal: Nurs Educ Perspect; 2007; 28(4):209-13. PubMed ID: 17715806.
    Abstract:
    This article describes a teaching strategy that focuses students' attention on the humanistic imperative in nursing practice. The Humanistic Teaching Method provides a framework for adapting nursing courses to accommodate person-to-person, human-centered nursing care alongside scientific and technological competencies. Through this approach, students integrate concepts such as humanism, existentialism, and phenomenology into patient interactions. In addition to producing a favorable effect on patients and colleagues, this approach contributes to personal gratification in making a difference in the lives of others. Pedagogical strategies currently in use may need to be modified to accommodate the humanistic conceptual framework.
