“…Edlund et al () have pointed out that human beings have been given a unique position in the created world and have an obligation to serve life, meaning a freedom given to them by creation and thus, a choice regarding how to relate to a situation. It has been documented that preserving the patients’ dignity revolves more concretely around allocating time to the patient, inviting the patient to participate and shielding the patient's body (Valeberg, Liodden, Grimsmo, & Lindwall, ). Previous research has also documented that psychological or emotional aspects are interwoven in the nurse's actions and decisions (Nortvedt, ).…”

Aim The aim is to highlight thoughts of creation as a significant fundamental of the nursing discipline. This is achieved by exploring thoughts of creation in relation to everyday nursing care. Design This study, based on a hermeneutical approach, provides reused data drawn from a larger Norwegian empirical study. Method A second thematic analysis was conducted. Data in the original study consisted of qualitative interviews and qualitative follow‐up interviews with 13 nurses. The research context was the primary and secondary somatic and psychiatric health service, inside as well as outside institutions. Results Three themes emerged: (a) Life as greater than a human being; (b) creational powers attributed to the human being; and (c) understanding life as basically good. Thus, thoughts of creation in terms of philosophical underpinnings seem to gain backing from nurses’ experiences of everyday nursing care and it can be argued that it adds elements that enrich nursing care.

“…When OTN students witness situations that they interpret as undignified care, courage and the will to not abandon the patient are required. In another study (22), taken from the perspective of students in anaesthesia care, violated dignity appears when caregivers ignore the patient, talk over the patient's head and do not respect the personal sphere. In perioperative practice, human dignity appears in the will not to abandon the patient.…”

Human dignity research in clinical practicea systematic literature review Background: This literature study describes caring science research on human dignity in different clinical practice. We already know a good deal about human dignity in nursing care but how do patients, nurses, healthcare professionals and next of kin experience human dignity in clinical practice? Aim: To summarise studies on human dignity to gain a deeper understanding of how it can be achieved in caring science research and to gain a broader understanding of the differences and similarities across caring contexts. The aim was also to gain a broader understanding of the differences and similarities of human dignity across different clinical practice. Method: The literature review re-analysed 28 empirical studies on human dignity are experienced from acute, psychiatric, elderly and rehabilitation care. The data analysis strategy was conducted in a systematic and critical way and consisted of a five-step method.Result: Maintaining dignity was described when caregivers had the time and the will to see and listen to patient and had the courage to see what they did not want to see, allowing their inner powers to act with the purpose of doing good. In elderly care, it was important that elderly persons are involved as members of society and experience respect, confidence, security and charity. Indignity was described when caregivers did not allow patients to have their will and when they had unethical attitudes, ignoring patients and creating powerlessness. The feeling of being abandoned and not being taken seriously are also described in elderly care. Conclusion: Findings show how caregivers fulfil their ethical responsibility by seeing, listening and being a part of the time and place. The will to do good includes the courage to preserve dignity and human value rests on being created as a human being. More research is needed about ethical and moral responsibility in clinical practice.

“…In line with the second theme, Šaňáková & Čáp (2019) stated that dignity is one of the most important values that patients perceive in nursing care (24). Respect for human dignity is in line with international ethical codes of nursing (25). Since "Dignity" is one of the basic rights of every patient, it ' s critical to pay attention to the dignity of the patient.…”

BackgroundOperating room nurses, who are important members of health teams and who serve in an environment full of ethical and work challenges, often face situations that require them to make decisions based on ethical principles. Therefore, compiling ethical codes appropriate to the culture and religion of the community is a good way to improve the quality of nursing services expected by stakeholders.ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to examine Operating room nurses’ lived experiences of ethical codes. Research design and methodA hermeneutic phenomenological study was performed. Participants were 10 operating room nurses who were selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth and semi-structured interviews. Data analysis was performed based on Van Manen methodology.ResultsData analysis revealed 3 main themes and 12 sub-themes that showed the experience of operating room nurses from ethical codes. The main themes were: Adherence to professional commitments, preserving patient dignity and respect for colleagues.ConclusionThe results of this study showed the ethical experiences of operating room nurses. These findings determine the ethical codes in the operating room. It is suggested that using these codes, a guide, and a model be developed to improve the ethical and professional performance of operating room nurses.
