Anthropology and children's nursing.
Children's nurses have become more involved in the provision of culturally sensitive care. There has been a search for a more meaning centred (or hermeneutic) method in exploring children's worlds. The possible relevance of anthropology as an approach to both the culture of children's nursing and the cultures in which children's nurses find themselves is explored.
