Hope: implications for neuroscience nursing.
Hope is a response of patients and families to actual and potential health problems. The study of this phenomenon in neuroscience populations is limited. Facilitating hope in the health care setting results from an understanding of its definition and significance to nursing, multidisciplinary origins and scientific investigations. Nursing interventions should include attention to the environment, goals, relationships, change and energy.
