Nursing Philosophy
Nursing is an art and science of caring an individual in need with compassion, empathy, respect, and trust. I believe nursing is about empowering and maximizing individual potential by providing safe, high quality, and holistic care achieved by working in partnership, promoting participation, and being culturally safe. I believe in developing a therapeutic relationship of trust with individuals and their family/whanau is an essential aspect towards achieving positive health outcomes. To ensure effective nursing practice, a nurse must integrate the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi and the health and wellness model Te Whare Tapa Wha to achieve equity in health. I believe, nurses do for others what they would do for themselves if they had the knowledge, will, and strength to do it.
