The caring behaviors based upon Jean Watson's theory were valued by Saudi patients irrespective of their cultural differences with the caregiver. However, the frequency of caring attended to by nurses in teaching/learning and helping/trust behavior subcategories were rated lower. Such is most likely the result of culture differences and language barriers existing between patients and nurses in Saudi Arabia. Results showed that the carative factors in Jean Watson's theory were also applicable to patients in Saudi Arabia and that nursing professionals should base their care on such theory to meet patient needs.

“…Katherine Kolcaba's Comfort Theory provided the conceptual framework for the development of the tool (see the Appendix). [7][8][9][10] The fi nal questionnaire was subsequently submitted for suitability and POPULATION Patients 18 years or older met the criteria for enrollment in the study if they had been brought to the hospital via air or ground ambulance after sustaining a blunt force mechanism of injury and if their initial hospital Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score was 13 or greater. The relevant categories of emotional and evaluative responses are known to occur with routine frequency in trauma patients.…”

Trauma Resuscitations and Patient Perceptions of Care and Comfort

Patients subjected to common trauma resuscitation practices can have varied emotional responses to certain aspects of their initial evaluation and care. Thirty-four patients admitted to the hospital after blunt traumatic injury were randomly selected to complete a self-reported questionnaire regarding their comfort levels with certain aspects of their initial trauma care and resuscitation. Most patients reported higher levels of comfort with procedures generally expected by the lay public and lower levels of comfort with those procedures less well known or for which they were not prepared. Analysis of survey data showed a larger percentage of discomfort with the digital rectal examination than with other aspects of trauma care. Notably, data analysis also showed a significant percentage of patients who were reluctant to disclose receiving a digital rectal examination. Additional investigation into the validity and reproducibility of these trends is warranted; however, there is legitimate evidence that there is room to improve a patient's perception of comfort during a trauma resuscitation and initial workup through improved communication and procedure disclosure.

“…Administrative arrangements and the infrastructure within hospitals and clinics may work against allowing healthcare providers the opportunity to fully listen to patients 8 so that patients can have a voice. 33 This finding underscores the importance of addressing the delivery of compassionate care from an organizational, cultural, or team-based aspect rather than only on an individual practitioner basis. 11 And yet, a caring culture "means leaving no stone unturned, sowing the seed of an idea, waiting patiently for a suitable time for implementation, and never giving up" 32 (p. 318).…”

Describing Compassionate Care

Compassion is vital in burn care. Its delivery could be considered a professional duty and a characteristic of care that affects patient satisfaction. However, the description of compassionate care is underexplored in the burn care literature. This study investigates the concept of compassionate care and how it is described from the perspective of the burn survivor. A qualitative design with two focus groups at the Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors' World Burn Congress was used to examine views of compassionate care directly through 31 burn survivors' accounts to better understand the concept and its delivery within the context of burn care. Discussions were recorded and transcripts were analyzed for prominent themes and descriptive components. Participants were primarily Caucasian (77%), female (60%), with an average age of 47.6 years and an average TBSA burn of approximately 49% sustained approximately 12 years ago. Qualitative data analysis yielded primary themes of: 1) respect the person (subthemes were: establishing an empathic connection, restoring control through choice, providing individualized care, and going above and beyond), 2) communication (subthemes: interpersonal and informational), and 3) provision of competent care. The three primary themes were components of compassionate care; it was not defined by a single characteristic, behavior, or skill but might be best understood as the convergence of the three themes. Implications of findings and barriers to the provision of compassionate care are also discussed.
