Disaster care through a humanbecoming lens.
Hurricane Katrina provided a unique learning experience for a group of senior nursing students from Troy University in Alabama. Using Parse's teaching-learning processes as a framework, students related their experiences and discovered new meaning for themselves and others as they completed their final semester of the nursing program. This experience exemplified to students that nursing is more than tasks, caring is attentively being with persons, and that holding a hand can demonstrate good nursing care more than a successful intravenous puncture.
