What older patients value in nursing.
This article reviews some of the literature considered to have had an impact on the provision of nursing services for older people in continuing care settings. It focuses on the skill and value of nursing, the patient-nurse relationship, and studies of consumer satisfaction carried out in NHS wards and nursing homes. The author claims that the review exposes a serious gap in the literature, namely, the consumer perspective of the value of nursing in continuing care establishments.
