“…The above-described CMOC and supporting evidence suggests strongly that the Human Becoming Theory (Bournes, 2002;Doucet & Bournes, 2007;Legault & Ferguson-Pare, 1999;Mitchell et al, 2006;Parse, 1992), the Senses Framework (Nolan et al, 2004;Nolan et al, 2006) and the Authentic Consciousness Theory (Gallant et al, 2002;McCormack, 2003;McCormack, 2004) are not the most appropriate theories for explaining nursing contributions to PFCC at the point-of-care in geriatric home care. Instead, Watson's Theory of Human Caring emerged as a more suitable theory for explaining the nursing role in PFCC.…”

RÉSUMÉCette étude a examiné les mécanismes complexes intervenant lors de la prestation de soins axés sur la personne et la famille (SAPF) par des équipes de soins gériatriques à domicile. Une approche par synthèse réaliste a été utilisée pour élaborer un cadre d’évaluation qui a inclus 159 références provenant de la littérature scientifique, des consultations d’experts canadiens en SAPF, des recherches ciblées dans les bases PubMed/MEDLINE® et CINAHL, et des recensions de la littérature grise canadienne. Les références ont été sélectionnées par deux personnes, selon une approche consensuelle avec évaluation de la qualité. Les données ont été extraites et synthétisées en tenant compte du contexte, des mécanismes et des configurations des résultats dans un cadre théorique de SAPF d’équipe pour les soins gériatriques à domicile. Le cadre présente les contributions spécifiques prédominantes des infirmières, des ergothérapeutes et des physiothérapeutes, leurs apports collectifs impliquant des communications pour des équipes virtuelles, ainsi que le soutien du système nécessité pour la prestation de SAPF d’équipe complets. Les résultats de cette étude pourraient contribuer à l’amélioration de l’éducation sur les SAPF et des lignes directrices sur les pratiques exemplaires, en vue d’assurer une prestation plus intégrée des SAPF dans les soins gériatriques offerts à domicile ou dans d’autres milieux comportant des équipes de soins.

“…Human becoming theory is grounded in the human sciences and existential‐phenomenological thought and supports the view of persons as the experts in their own lives (Legault & Ferguson‐Pare 1999). The central phenomenon is that the person's health is described as a process of becoming, and the goal of nursing practice is to pursue the ultimate quality of life from the perspective of the person.…”

This paper describes theories from various disciplines that are useful in conceptualizing and reflecting on the mental health of Aboriginal women. Critical social theory (sociology), Parse's human becoming theory (nursing) and ecological systems theory (developmental psychology) are considered valuable theories that aid in nursing praxis. These papers discuss how these different theoretical approaches are beneficial for achieving different goals and therefore provide important foundational underpinnings to challenging traditional assumptions that effect human behaviour and practice.

“…Published evaluation research includes studies conducted in Canada and the US. 24,25,35,40 Nurse scholars from various countries write about the theory of human becoming in research and practice, extending and enhancing the knowledge base of the theory, and thus that of nursing science. Knowledge development guided by this theoretical perspective focuses on the lived experience of unitary humans.…”

Parallels in practice: Palliative nursing practice and Parse’s theory of human becoming

Nurses experienced in the art and science of palliative nursing will find many elements of congruence between the principles and philosophy of palliative practice and the theory of human becoming. In this brief exploration of parallels in practice between Parse's theory of human becoming and traditional palliative and hospice nursing practice, the author suggests that the theory of human becoming is consistent and consonant with the values that shape palliative nursing practice. The theory is briefly described, and four parallels of practice are identifed: whole person care; the presence of paradox in human experience; primacy of the person; and presence and dialogue, or "being with, " dying persons. The theory of human becoming holds relevance and promise in its capacity to provide palliative and hospice nurses with a theoretical framework with which to inform and guide nursing practice with dying persons.
