Reflexivity in nursing : where is the Patient? Where is the Nurse?
Peerson, Anita and Yong, Vivian 2003, Reflexivity in nursing : where is the Patient? Where is the Nurse?, Australian journal of holistic nursing, vol. 10, no. 1, pp. 30-45.
Drawing upon forty years of nursing experience, in this paper we are reflexive about four issues relative to nursing clinical practices: seeking technological solutions to health and ill-health; moving from the nurse-patient relationship to the patient-healer relationship; utilising critical pathways; and, supporting evidence-based nursing. We examine current nursing practices and ask probing questions to generate debate. Most of all, we encourage nurses to engage in reflexivity and not to lose sight of their selves (knowledge, expertise and skills), and their patients' voices and subjectivity, in their contribution to health care.
