Abstract
The relationship between nurse and patient is important to nursing care and health outcomes. This relationship can be therapeutic for both nurse and patient. However, the current lack of conceptual consensus and descriptive clarity in nursing theory has precluded the relationship from the realms of therapy and healing. The goal of this study was to discern, from descriptions given by nurses and patients, the essential structure, dynamics, practical application and advantages to nursing practice of a therapeutic relationship between nurse and patient.
