This research used an ethnographic method to determine the extent to which health professionals had in fact upheld the philosophy of these documents.

  • Patients' and nurses' perceptions of respect and human presence through caring behaviours: A comparative study.Evridiki Papastavrou, Georgios Efstathiou, Haritini Tsangari, Riitta Suhonen, Helena Leino-Kilpi, Elisabeth Patiraki, Chryssoula Karlou, Zoltan Balogh, Alvisa Palese, Marco Tomietto, Darja Jarosova & Anastasios Merkouris - 2012 - Nursing Ethics 19 (3):369-379.
    Although respect and human presence are frequently reported in nursing literature, these are poorly defined within a nursing context. The aim of this study was to examine the differences, if any, in the perceived frequency of respect and human presence in the clinical care, between nurses and patients. A convenience sample of 1537 patients and 1148 nurses from six European countries (Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, Greece, Hungary and Italy) participated in this study during autumn 2009. The six-point Likert-type Caring Behaviours (...)

The data were collected through 26 unstructured interviews and analyzed using content analysis.
