Imaging nursing--reflecting and projecting.
This paper sets out to consider reflected and projected images of nurses. When looking at the reflected images, those images that we see of ourselves, it attempts to consider the image of the role of the nurse, the image of the nursing workforce, and the image of nursing education. In projected images, it looks at nursing projected as a career, and the image of the nurse in law. The key theme running through the article is the privilege of intimacy which nursing provides.
