title: Utilizing the home setting to teach Watson's theory of human caring.
abstract: Watson's theory of human caring serves as a framework in assisting RN/BSN completion students caring for dying patients at home. Through personal journals and case conferences, students incorporated Watson's 10 carative factors of human caring as the basis of their nursing interventions with clients and families. In this required course students visited patients, saw them through the dying process, and helped families with grieving. Students learned principles of home care, hospice, and what the differences and similarities can mean in the home and hospital setting.
