A Case Study Based On Watson’s Theory of Human Caring

Nursing theories and models form a framework for systematizing nursing practices. In Turkey, nurses are generally organized on the basis of the medical model, which makes the essence of nursing invisible. The authors here aim to explain how to maintain a theory-based care approach for nurses working with persons experiencing infertility. The interaction between an infertile woman and a nurse is shared within the framework of Watson's theory of human caring. Watson's theory has been found useful for the infertile group in practice.
