Nurses and Concept of Hope Coursework

Nurses have to deal with the concept of hope in their practice quite often. to address the needs of people who are . Patients spirituality and their religiosity should be considered when nursing practitioners deliver care. The point discussed in the videos is specifically valuable and relevant to my practice (Ragsdale & Ragsdale, 2018). I agree that it can be hard or even impossible for a to identify the degree of religiousness of the patient or their caregiver. Therefore, it can be quite ineffective to concentrate on the religious aspect and seek some answers in the Holly Book although referring to some is always appropriate. I would pay more attention to values rather than exact stories in order to actually reach my patients or their caregivers.

Another important point that I find really interesting is related to the other side of hope. I never thought of hope as something dangerous, but I have to admit that it often turns into false hope. When talking with caregivers, it is clear that they always hope that their loved ones will recover. In many cases, this hope prevents these people from seeing the real picture or even strategies that are the most appropriate in specific instances. Nurses should make sure that patients and their caregivers do not have false hope but manage to believe and find the inner strength to cope with their challenges. It is important to adopt the approach employed by David who made every possible thing he could but managed to stop, accept the reality, and move on. should try to encourage their patients and their caregivers to have this kind of attitude in the most desperate situations.
