    Towards abandoning the master’s tools: The politics of a universal nursing identity.Blythe Bell - 2021 - Nursing Inquiry 28 (2):e12395.
    Healthcare environments continue to prove discriminatory and marginalizing towards patients and healthcare workers themselves, which contributes to inequitable health outcomes across lines of socially constructed difference. This content and discourse analysis of nursing identity scholarship asks whether there is a connection between nursing identity and oppressive behaviour by examining the construction of nursing identity and the foundational discourses, sometimes in absentia, that support such a construction. Bourdieu's concepts of social fields and Audre Lorde's concept of the master's (...)

    Nursing work in NHS Direct: constructing a nursing identity in the call‐centre environment.Sherrill Ray Snelgrove - 2009 - Nursing Inquiry 16 (4):355-365.
    The introduction of nurse‐led telephone helplines for patients to have access to information and advice has led to the development of a new kind of practise for nurses. This study focuses on the ways NHS Direct (NHSD) nurses construct a nursing identity and shape their work in a call‐centre environment. The empirical findings are drawn from a study investigating the impact of NHSD on professional nursing issues that was part of a wider evaluation of the service in South (...)

    Dusting off the looking‐glass: A historical analysis of the development of a nursing identity in Chile.Ricardo A. Ayala & E. Rocío Núñez - 2017 - Nursing Inquiry 24 (3):e12185.
    Histories of nursing that disregard their linkage to broader historical movements often lead to historically detached versions of nursing identity that omit the perspective of their sources and the ideas of their time. Drawing on materials retrieved through a multilayered research strategy comprising internal and external sources, this article examines the development of a nursing identity in Chile during the period starting in the 1950s through the early 2000s. We analysed the sociopolitical contexts in which the nursing profession (...)

    Moral Distress Reexamined: A Feminist Interpretation of Nurses' Identities, Relationships, and Responsibilites. [REVIEW]Elizabeth Peter & Joan Liaschenko - 2013 - Journal of Bioethical Inquiry 10 (3):337-345.
    Moral distress has been written about extensively in nursing and other fields. Often, however, it has not been used with much theoretical depth. This paper focuses on theorizing moral distress using feminist ethics, particularly the work of Margaret Urban Walker and Hilde Lindemann. Incorporating empirical findings, we argue that moral distress is the response to constraints experienced by nurses to their moral identities, responsibilities, and relationships. We recommend that health professionals get assistance in accounting for and communicating their values and (...)

    What makes a nurse today? A debate on the nursing professional identity and its need for change.Margreet Cingel & Jasperina Brouwer - 2021 - Nursing Philosophy 22 (2):e12343.
    In 2020, due to the Nightingale year and COVID‐19 crisis, nursing is in the public eye more than ever. Nurses often are being seen as compassionate helpers. The public image of nursing, however, also consists of stereotypes such as nursing being a ‘doing’ profession and care being a ‘female’ characteristic. Next to that, nursing is associated with images from the past, such as ‘the lady with the lamp’. Therefore, in the public eye at least, the nursing identity seems a (...)

    Nurses’ narratives of moral identity: Making a difference and reciprocal holding.Elizabeth Peter, Anne Simmonds & Joan Liaschenko - 2018 - Nursing Ethics 25 (3):324-334.
    Background: Explicating nurses’ moral identities is important given the powerful influence moral identity has on the capacity to exercise moral agency. Research objectives: The purpose of this study was to explore how nurses narrate their moral identity through their understanding of their work. An additional purpose was to understand how these moral identities are held in the social space that nurses occupy. Research design: The Registered Nurse Journal, a bimonthly publication of the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario, (...)

    Nurses matter: reclaiming our professional identity.Verena Tschudin - 1999 - Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire: Macmillan.
    Today's nurses find themselves in the position of having to redefine their identity. They must ask themselves why they matter, what is important about them as professionals, and how they contribute as team members. In this innovative and stimulating book, Verena Tschudin draws on her research and expertise to bring together aspects of nursing and ethics in a fresh and challenging way. Starting from the premise that 'people matter', she develops a basis for a nursing identity which gives (...)

  9. Moral identity and palliative sedation: A systematic review of normative nursing literature.David Kenneth Wright, Chris Gastmans, Amanda Vandyk & Bernadette Dierckx de Casterlé - 2020 - Nursing Ethics 27 (3):868-886.
    Background: In the last two decades, nursing authors have published ethical analyses of palliative sedation—an end-of-life care practice that also receives significant attention in the broader medical and bioethics literature. This nursing literature is important, because it contributes to disciplinary understandings about nursing values and responsibilities in end-of-life care. Research aim: The purpose of this project is to review existing nursing ethics literature about palliative sedation, and to analyze how nurses’ moral identities are portrayed within this literature. Research design: We (...)

    Is nurses’ clinical competence associated with their moral identity and injury?Yue Teng, Mahlagha Dehghan, Sayed Mortaza Hossini Rafsanjanipoor, Diala Altwalbeh, Zahra Riyahi, Hojjat Farahmandnia, Ali Zeidabadi & Mohammad Ali Zakeri - 2023 - Nursing Ethics.
    Background The enhancement of nursing care quality is closely related to the clinical competence of nurses, making it a crucial component within health systems. Objective The present study investigated the relationship between nurses’ clinical competence, moral identity, and moral injury during the COVID-19 outbreak. Research design This cross-sectional study was carried out among frontline nurses, using the Moral Identity Questionnaire (MIQ), the Moral Injury Symptom Scale-Healthcare Professionals version (MISS-HP), and the Competency Inventory for Registered Nurse (CIRN) as (...)

    Fostering Nurses’ Moral Agency and Moral Identity: The Importance of Moral Community.Joan Liaschenko & Elizabeth Peter - 2016 - Hastings Center Report 46 (S1):18-21.
    It may be the case that the most challenging moral problem of the twenty‐first century will be the relationship between the individual moral agent and the practices and institutions in which the moral agent is embedded. In this paper, we continue the efforts that one of us, Joan Liaschenko, first called for in 1993, that of using feminist ethics as a lens for viewing the relationship between individual nurses as moral agents and the highly complex institutions in which they do (...)

    Events and event identity: Under-explored topics in nursing.Martin Lipscomb - 2010 - Nursing Philosophy 11 (2):88-99.
    Theoretic interest in the nature of events and event identity is apparent across a wide range of fields. However, this interest has not yet made itself known in nursing. In this paper, it is asserted that nurse theoreticians and researchers should consider the problematic of events and event identity. It is suggested that engagement with these issues is important because the manner in which this component of explanation is integrated into argument has concrete implications for our understanding (...)

    Being a real nurse: A secondary qualitative analysis of how public health nurses rework their work identities.Denise J. Drevdahl & Mary K. Canales - 2020 - Nursing Inquiry 27 (4):e12360.
    Many Western nations are emphasizing the importance of population health across health care delivery organizations and education systems. Despite significant momentum to integrate population health into nursing practice, a parallel effort to examine how these efforts impact practicing nurses' views of their professional role and work identity has not occurred. This secondary qualitative analysis, employing an abductive approach, explored processes public health nurses use in creating and maintaining their work identity through three organizing themes: narrative self‐identity, mandated (...)

    Moral distress, moral courage, and career identity among nurses: A cross-sectional study.Mengyun Peng, Shinya Saito, Hong Guan & Xiaohuan Ma - 2023 - Nursing Ethics 30 (3):358-369.
    Background The concept of career identity is integral to nursing practices and forms the basis of the nursing professions. Positive career identity is essential for providing high-quality care, optimizing patient outcomes, and enhancing the retention of health professionals. Therefore, there is a need to explore potential influencing variables, thereby developing effective interventions to improve career identity. Objectives To investigate the relationship between moral distress, moral courage, and career identity, and explore the mediating role of moral courage (...)

    The evolution of advanced nursing practice: Gender, identity, power and patriarchy.Robin Lewis - 2022 - Nursing Inquiry 29 (4):e12489.
    To address longstanding workforce shortages, increase efficiency and control the costs associated with the modern health-care provision, there has been a worldwide policy to promote increased flexibility within the health-care workforce. This is being done primarily by extending the ‘scope of practice’ of existing occupational roles into what is referred to as ‘advanced’ practice. The development of the advanced practice nurse (APN) has occurred within the context of a shortage of medical staff, and the need to control cost. However, (...)

    There has been some research conducted regarding nurses’ career success aimed at exploring its influencing factors, but there is no research on the mechanism of self-identity on the career success of infection control nurses. In order to further explore the formation mechanism of career success of nurses, we conducted our study using the Kaleidoscope Career Model to explore the chain-mediating effects of cognitive emotion regulation and social support between self-identity and career success.

    Moral disengagement, moral identity, and counterproductive work behavior among emergency nurses.Yanfei Ke & Fuda Li - 2025 - Nursing Ethics 32 (1):111-124.
    Background Morality is a fundamental component of nurses’ daily work. Nurses’ cognitive tendencies toward moral disengagement in high-stress work environments can easily lead them to engage in counterproductive work behaviors that are not conducive to the organization. However, there is limited research on how to mitigate the impact of moral disengagement on counterproductive work behavior. Objective The objective was to explore the impact of moral disengagement on counterproductive work behavior, as well as the reverse regulatory mechanism of moral identity (...)

    Reflections on whiteness: Racialised identities in nursing.Helen T. Allan - 2022 - Nursing Inquiry 29 (1).
    In this article, I discuss the structural domination of whiteness as it intersects with the potential of individual critique and reflexivity. I reflect on my positioning as a white nurse researcher while researching international nurse migration. I draw on two large qualitative studies and one small focus group study to discuss my reactions as a white researcher to evidence of institutional racism in the British health services and my growing awareness of how racism is reproduced in the British (...)

    Working in a ‘third space’: a closer look at the hybridity, identity and agency of nurse practitioners.Teresa Chulach & Marilou Gagnon - 2016 - Nursing Inquiry 23 (1):52-63.
    Nurse practitioners (NPs), as advanced practice nurses, have evolved over the years to become recognized as an important and growing trend in Canada and worldwide. In spite of sound evidence as to the effectiveness ofNPs in primary care and other care settings, role implementation and integration continue to pose significant challenges. This article utilizes postcolonial theory, as articulated by Homi Bhabha, to examine and challenge traditional ideologies and structures that have shaped the development, implementation and integration of theNProle to (...)

  22. Nurses' Advocacy in Intensive Care: What Insights Can Nurses' Experiences During the Pandemic Reveal?Carolina da Silva Caram, Elizabeth Peter, Isabela Cancio Velloso, Lilian Cristina Rezende, Bruna Pedroso Canever, Marcelexandra Rabelo & Mara Ambrosina de Oliveira Vargas - 2025 - Nursing Inquiry 32 (1):e12683.
    Patient advocacy must be understood as an ethical component of nursing practice that involves respecting and defending patients' rights and autonomy. During the COVID‐19 pandemic, the vulnerability of patients in intensive care units (ICUs) increased requiring that nurses advocate for those patients more than ever in a context in which changes in daily nursing practices of care imposed by the pandemic deeply impacted nurses' advocacy. In this study, we examined ICU nurses' patient advocacy during the pandemic, using feminist ethics as (...)

    Applying a Foucauldian lens to the Canadian code of ethics for registered nurses as a discursive mechanism for nurses professional identity.Janet K. Purvis - 2023 - Nursing Inquiry 30 (2):e12536.
    This study examines the Canadian Code of Ethics for Registered Nurses as a discursive mechanism for shaping nurses' professional identity using a Foucauldian lens. Nurses are considered essential in healthcare, yet the nursing profession has struggled to be recognized for its discipline‐specific knowledge and expertise and, as such, has remained the subject of and subject to the dominant discourses within healthcare and society generally. Developing a professional identity in nursing begins after the necessary education and training are achieved (...)

    Gender and professional identity in psychiatric nursing practice in Alberta, Canada, 1930–75.Geertje Boschma, Olive Yonge & Lorraine Mychajlunow - 2005 - Nursing Inquiry 12 (4):243-255.
    This paper examines gender‐specific transformations of nursing practice in institutional mental health‐care in Alberta, Canada, based on archival records on two psychiatric hospitals, Alberta Hospital Ponoka and Alberta Hospital Edmonton, and on oral histories with psychiatric mental health nurses in Alberta. The paper explores class and gender as interrelated influences shaping the work and professional identity of psychiatric mental health nurses from the 1930s until the mid‐1970s. Training schools for nurses in psychiatric hospitals emerged in Alberta in the 1930s (...)

    Serial Multiple Mediation of Professional Identity, and Psychological Capital in the Relationship Between Work-Related Stress and Work-Related Well-Being of ICU Nurses in China: A Cross-Sectional Questionnaire Survey.Cuiping Hao, Lina Zhu, Suzhen Zhang, Shan Rong, Yaqing Zhang, Jiuhang Ye & Fuguo Yang - 2020 - Frontiers in Psychology 11.
    This study aimed to investigate the serial-multiple mediation effect of professional identity, psychological capital, work-related stress, and work-related wellbeing among intensive care unit nurses in China. The cross-sectional survey was conducted from January 2017 to May 2017 in two Grade III A general hospitals in Jining, Shandong Province, China. Cluster sampling was used to recruit participants from the two hospitals. A total of 330 ICU nurses participated in the study. The nurses’ work stress scale, Chinese nurse’s professional (...) scale, the PsyCap questionnaire, and Chinese work-related wellbeing scale were used to collect the data. Descriptive analysis, independent-samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson correlation analysis, linear regression analysis, and structural equation modeling were used to analyze the data. The average score for the work-related wellbeing of ICU nurses was 85.91 ± 13.94. Work-related stress, professional identity, and PsyCap correlated significantly with work-related wellbeing. The major predictors of work-related wellbeing were PsyCap, work-related stress, professional identity, and monthly salary. The serial-multiple mediation effects of professional identity and PsyCap in the relationship between work-related stress and work-related wellbeing were statistically significant. Positive professional identity and PsyCap were sequentially associated with decreased work-related stress, which in turn was related to increased work-related wellbeing among ICU nurses. Therefore, this study aims to explore the impact of ICU nurses’ work-related stress on work-related wellbeing, as well as the mediating effect of professional identity and PsyCap. It is hoped that hospital care managers will pay attention to the mental health of ICU nurses, increase their professional identity, and reduce work-related stress to improve the quality of the ICU nursing service and stabilize nursing work.

    Ways of walking, speaking and listening: Nursing practices and professional identities among Polish nurses in Norway.Marek Pawlak - 2021 - Nursing Inquiry 28 (4):e12418.
    This article explores the lived experiences of Polish nurses’ transition into the Norwegian healthcare system and analyses the emerging differences in nursing practices and professional identities between Poland and Norway. It draws on ethnographic findings and argues that nursing is a complex practice, which involves not only nursing knowledge, but also less obvious and often taken for granted nursing imaginaries and actions. In doing so, the article looks at different ways of walking, speaking and listening, which are not merely nurses’ (...)

    This paper forms part of a wider study examining the history and sociology of nursing education in England between 1860 and 1948. It argues that the question of whether nursing was an art, science and/or social science has been at die ‘heart’ of a wider debate on die occupational status and disciplinary identity of nursing. The view that nursing was essentially an art and a ‘calling’, was championed by Florence Nightingale. Ethel Bedford Fenwick and her allies insisted that nursing, (...)

    Invisibility of the self: Reaching for the telos of nursing within a context of moral distress.Carolina S. Caram, Elizabeth Peter & Maria J. M. Brito - 2019 - Nursing Inquiry 26 (1):e12269.

The causes and implications of moral distress in nurses, however, have not been understood in terms of their implications from the perspective of virtue ethics. This paper analyzes how nurses reach for the telos of their practice, within a context of moral distress. A qualitative case study was carried out in a private hospital in Brazil.

    Nursing history as philosophy—towards a critical history of nursing.Thomas Foth, Jette Lange & Kylie Smith - 2018 - Nursing Philosophy 19 (3):e12210.
    Mainstream nursing history often positions itself in opposition to philosophy and many nursing historians are reticent of theorizing. In the quest to illuminate the lives of nurses and women current historical approaches are driven by reformist aspirations but are based on the conception that nursing or caring is basically good and the timelessness of universal values. This has the effect of essentialising political categories of identity such as class, race and gender. This kind of history is about affirmation rather (...)

    Nurses’ experiences of ethical responsibilities of care during the COVID-19 pandemic.Elizabeth Peter, Shan Mohammed, Tieghan Killackey, Jane MacIver & Caroline Variath - 2022 - Nursing Ethics 29 (4):844-857.
    Background The COVID-19 pandemic has forced rapid and widespread change to standards of patient care and nursing practice, inevitably leading to unprecedented shifts in the moral conditions of nursing work. Less is known about how these challenges have affected nurses’ capacity to meet their ethical responsibilities and what has helped to sustain their efforts to continue to care.

    German Nurses, Euthanasia and Terminal Care: a Personal Perspective.Constanze Giese - 2009 - Nursing Ethics 16 (2):231-237.
    The nursing profession in Germany is facing a public debate on legal and ethical questions concerning euthanasia on request and physician-assisted suicide. However, it seems questionable if the profession itself, individual nurses or the professional associations are prepared to be involved in such a public debate. To understand this hesitation, the present situation is considered in the light of the tradition and history of professional care in Germany. Obedience to medical as well as to religious authorities was long part of (...)

    The nursing discipline and self-realization.Margareth Kristoffersen & Febe Friberg - 2015 - Nursing Ethics 22 (6):723-733.
    Background: It is obvious from literature within the nursing discipline that nursing is related to moral or moral–philosophical related ideas which are other-oriented. The socio-cultural process of change in modern society implies that more self-oriented ideas have been found to be significant. Aim: The overall aim of this article is to highlight self-oriented moral or moral–philosophical related ideas as an important part of the nursing discipline. This is achieved by (a) exploring self-realization as a significant self-oriented moral or moral–philosophical related (...)

    Nurses’ articulations of the patients’ role when the vision is partnership: A qualitative study.Julie Mondahl & Kirsten Frederiksen - 2020 - Nursing Inquiry 27 (2):e12327.
    Although principles such as ‘patient participation’ and ‘patient involvement’ have become ideals in health‐care, they have proven to be difficult to apply in practice. In 2014, one Danish region issued an official document that included the vision of ‘the patient as partner’. However, little is known about how such a vision affects clinical practice. The purpose of this study was to investigate nurses’ views on how partnerships between them and patients are established considering this vision. We conducted semi‐structured interviews with (...)

  40. The Value of Nursing: a Literature Review.Khim Horton, Verena Tschudin & Armorel Forget - 2007 - Nursing Ethics 14 (6):716-740.
    This article is part of a wider study entitled Value of Nursing, and contains the literature search from electronic databases. Key words for the search included `values of nursing', `values in nursing', `organisational values' and `professional identity'. Thirty-two primary reports published in English between 2000 and 2006 were identified. The findings highlight the importance of understanding values and their relevance in nursing and how values are constructed. The value of nursing is seen to be influenced by cultural change, globalization, (...)

    Impediments to the formation of intensive care nurses' professional identify.Somayeh Mousazadeh, Shahrzad Yektatalab, Marzieh Momennasab & Soroor Parvizy - 2019 - Nursing Ethics 26 (6):1873-1885.
    Background: Nurses face challenges regarding professional identify. Being unaware of these challenges and not owning positive professional identify leads to a lack of self-confidence. Thus, nurses face problems in interpersonal communication and lose their attachment to their profession. Few studies have engaged with impediments to forming positive professional identity in relation to intensive care nurses. Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impediments to forming positive professional identity in nurses working in intensive care unit. Research (...)

    Becoming a nurse as a moral journey: A constructivist grounded theory.Hadi Ranjbar, Soodabeh Joolaee, Abouali Vedadhir, Abbas Abbaszadeh & Colleen Bernstein - 2017 - Nursing Ethics 24 (5):583-597.
    Background: Nursing students, during their study, experience significant changes on their journey to become nurses. A major change that they experience is the development of their moral competency. Objective: The purpose of this study is to explore the process of moral development in Iranian nursing students. Research design: A constructivist grounded theory method was adopted. Twenty-five in-depth, semi-structured, face-to-face intensive interviews with 22 participants were conducted from September 2013 to October 2014. All interviews were audio-taped, transcribed, and analyzed using writing (...)

    Why the history of nursing ethics matters.Marsha D. Fowler - 2017 - Nursing Ethics 24 (3):292-304.
    Modern American nursing has an extensive ethical heritage literature that extends from the 1870s to 1965 when the American Nurses Association issued a policy paper that called for moving nursing education out of hospital diploma programs and into colleges and universities. One consequence of this move was the dispersion of nursing libraries and the loss of nursing ethics textbooks, as they were largely not brought over into the college libraries. In addition to approximately 100 nursing ethics textbooks, the nursing ethics (...)

    Governing nursing conduct: the rise of evidence‐based practice.Sarah Winch, Debra Creedy & And Wendy Chaboyer - 2002 - Nursing Inquiry 9 (3):156-161.
    Governing nursing conduct: the rise of evidence‐based practice Drawing on the Foucauldian concept of ‘governmentality’ to analyse the evidence‐based movement in nursing, we argue that it is possible to identify the governance of nursing practice and hence nurses across two distinct axes; that of the political (governance through political and economic means) and the personal (governance of the self through the cultivation of the practices required by nurses to put evidence into practice). The evaluation of nursing work through evidence‐based reviews (...)

    From self‐reflection to shared recognition: Reconceptualising mental health nursing as an intersubjective phenomenon.Michael Haslam - 2024 - Nursing Inquiry 31 (4):e12675.
    Existing challenges to the legitimacy of mental health nursing in the United Kingdom and beyond have stimulated a critical self‐reflection and discourse around the mental health nursing role, forcing the profession to question its identity and critically re‐evaluate its position within the wider healthcare arena. In this discussion paper, I suggest that the current difficulties in conceptualising mental health nurse identity arise from our role being inherently interwoven with distinctive challenges and unique needs of our service users. (...)

    Nursing professions’ distinctive ethical standards: Exploring a code of ethics.Gila Yakov, Inbal Halevi Hochwald, Tsuriel Rashi, S. Shachaf, Y. Sela & O. Halperin - forthcoming - Nursing Ethics.
    This article presents an examination of the ethical code of nursing in Israel, focusing on the nurse-patient, nurse-colleague, and nurse-professional leadership relationships. This article offers for the first English translation of the Israel Nursing Association’s Code of Ethics to facilitate international scholarly discussion, and to critique this Code through the lens of Asa Kasher’s philosophical test, thereby examining its completeness and practical utility. As it stands today, the code lacks clarification of the professional ethical uniqueness of nursing. (...)

    Nurses’ care practices at the end of life in intensive care units in Bahrain.Catherine S. O’Neill, Maryam Yaqoob, Sumaya Faraj & Carla L. O’Neill - 2017 - Nursing Ethics 24 (8):950-961.
    Background: The process of dying in intensive care units is complex as the technological environment shapes clinical decisions. Decisions at the end of life require the involvement of patient, families and healthcare professionals. The degree of involvement can vary depending on the professional and social culture of the unit. Nurses have an important role to play in caring for dying patients and their families; however, their knowledge is not always sought. Objectives: This study explored nurses’ care practices at the end (...)

    Dignity from the nurses’ and older patients’ perspective: A qualitative literature review.Šárka Šaňáková & Juraj Čáp - 2019 - Nursing Ethics 26 (5):1292-1309.
    Introduction: Dignity is one of the most important values sensitively perceived by patients in nursing care. Older patients have been identified as having a high risk of losing their dignity in institutional care. To promote optimum nursing care, a deeper insight into the problem of older patients’ dignity is needed. Aim: The aim was to identify, analyse and synthesise the qualitative evidence of dignity views and factors affecting it from the nurses’ and older patients’ perspective in the context of nursing (...)

    Reframing covenant for nursing: From individual commitments to covenant with society.Dorolen Wolfs, Darlaine Jantzen, Marsha Fowler, Lynn C. Musto & Sheryl Reimer-Kirkham - 2024 - Nursing Philosophy 25 (4):e12498.
    Today's constrained healthcare environment can make it very difficult for nurses to provide compassionate, competent, and ethical care, and yet their continued commitment to care is viewed as requisite. Nurses' commitment to care of patients, enmeshed with professional identity, may be understood as heroic. A few nursing scholars have advanced the concept of a nurse‐patient covenant to explain or inspire nurses' commitment to care. Covenant describes an enduring relationship characterised by mutual promises and generous responsiveness. However, recent critique (...)

    Nursing and the reality of politics.Clinton E. Betts - 2009 - Nursing Inquiry 16 (3):261-272.
    Notwithstanding the remarkable achievements made by medical science over the last half of the twentieth century, there is a palpable sense that a strictly medical view of human health, that is one founded on modernist assumptions, has become problematic, if not counterproductive. In this study, I argue that as nursing continues to eagerly welcome and indeed champion medical epistemology in the form of knowledge transfer, evidence‐based practice, research utilization, outcomes‐based practice, quantifiable efficiency and effectiveness, it risks becoming little more than (...)
