[A trio of ladies. A reflection on the humanization of treatment].
Due to the celebration of the 90th anniversary, 1917-2007, of the Santa Madrona University School of Nursing, an International Conference on "the humanization of treatment" took place in Barcelona. At the same time, a four-day workshop session was organized at which the attendees had the chance to meet and share professional experiences with three renowned nurses on the art of caring. Dr. Benner, Dr. Watson and Dr. Bower are well-known in the international and the teaching fields for their paradigms and theories on managing treatment. The contribution of their knowledge, their creation and their constant work with humanistic criteria is supported by a long bibliographical trajectory which offers a professional history based on continuous improvement, learning and evolution. As participants in these workshops, the authors provide a narration on the content of each one, from a personal and practical perspective, emphasizing some concepts and strategies which we can apply in our own environs, confronting a new integrated care challenge and management of treatment underneath a focus less mechanical and more humane.
