Think about the following scenario:

As nurses, we meet patients and their family members in many different life situations. Patients may be of all ages, acutely or chronically ill. They might return to life and health, or come to the end of life, and face mortality. Nurses meet patients and families in their homes, at the hospital or the nursing home, in the school, local health clinic, and so forth. Some meetings with patients and family members make a greater impression on us than others, and all meetings represent situations of learning in more than one way.

3. Find two or more peer-reviewed journal articles on “caring” .

4. In a Microsoft Word document, write a brief case study on your own professional experience (or make up a case study). Your case study should do the following and be at least 2000 words in length.

Incorporate how caring is expressed in the scenario. Use the literature to support your statements.
Describe a situation where a lack of caritative caring may occur, and what can be done to prevent suffering related to care. The most unusual form of suffering related to care is suffering as a consequence of lack of caritative caring. It is a violation of a human being’s dignity.
5. Use APA style and remember to cite all your online references.

6. Include the peer reviewed articles you found (as PDF files). Please compress the articles and send that file separately from your paper.
