Abstract

The narrative of nursing situations highlights the experiences and meanings of the person object of care with a disease process, and accounts for the caring relationship between the nurse and the patient in need of nursing care as a key aspect for the recovery of physical, mental, and spiritual health, based on the nursing care process. The nursing situation of a 74-year-old woman after a laparotomy surgery plus resection of a mass in the sigmoid colon, that led to a colostomy, is presented. Situations related to anxiety and concern of one of her daughters about the state of health of her mother are highlighted. Based on the narrative, we analyzed the fundamental patterns of personal, empirical, ethical, and aesthetic knowledge; and also the Interactive-Integrative Nursing Worldview, as well as the application of Afaf Meleis’ Transitions mid-range Theory and its assumptions of the transition properties.
