This review is from: Assessing and Measuring Caring in Nursing and Health Science (Hardcover)
I needed an instrument to measure caring. I am interested in applying Watson's theory of human caring to our hospital in the pursuit of magnet
status and I needed an instrument that has been tested. This book is full of them!
