Philosophy of nursing indicates the thoughts of individuals on what they believe to be
true with regards to the nature of various activities within the nursing profession. In modern-day
nursing practices, some philosophies are used to describe and guide the manner in which
professionals are supposed to take place within the nursing fraternity. Primary, nursing
philosophy concentrates on the four concepts of nursing which include a person, nursing, health,
and environment. The relationship between these concepts is responsible for the success or
failure of the nursing practices. The description of these philosophies is important in improving
the quality of nursing practices in the society.
Valued personal concepts
Person/client
Without the clients, the nurses need the clients. Primarily, nurses provide services to the
persons. Most accurately described, clients, refer to the entities that benefit from the services and
actions of the various nursing professionals (Thorne, 2016).
Description
In all the actions within the nursing sector, the interests of the clients should be given the
first attention. In all situations, the personal health of the clients should be given consideration.
Instructively, not all clients are the same, and the uniqueness among these groups of people
should be used in determining the most appropriate care. Besides, the person's history ought to
be considered in the process of reviewing the most appropriate care to be adopted.
