The CNS in multidisciplinary pulmonary rehabilitation: a nursing science perspective.
Although nursing has been described as having an important role to play in the process of pulmonary rehabilitation, the extant literature on multidisciplinary pulmonary rehabilitation has not included a clear articulation of that role or its unique scientific base. The meaning of nursing science-based advanced practice to the team-oriented process of pulmonary rehabilitation is explored from the perspective of Parse's theory of human becoming. Philosophical notions informing practice from this perspective, as well as theory-based advanced nursing practice in pulmonary rehabilitation, are examined. CNS subroles of practice and research are discussed as essential avenues to development of this human science-based approach to advanced practice.
