Abstract
ROMAN, Fernando. Nursing: a reflection about its future and its reason to be. Temperamentvm [online]. 2020, vol.16, e13196. Epub June 06, 2022. ISSN 1699-6011.
Nursing is a discipline that has undergone several changes along its story. Nevertheless, the new transformations in the way of doing health service can change the idea of what profession is today. With the purpose of facing this future we have opted to strengthen the task of the nursing's philosophy, trying to ponder on its reason to be: care. In this way, we have supported our ideas in the book “El futuro del cuidado. Comprensión de la ética del cuidado y práctica enfermera” by Carmen Domínguez Alcón, Helen Kohlen and Joan Tronto, as well as other books and articles of different authors of interest. This journey will help us to comprehend how the care can be an useful tool to place nursing into the course of the new changes of the present.
