title: Patient-nurse relationships: using reflective practice.
abstract: This article describes how a district nurse used a reflective journal to evaluate her practice when dealing with a tense patient-nurse relationship. Using a model of reflective practice and drawing on much of the theory on the subject, the author describes how the whole experience forced her to revise her perceptions of nursing.
