Florence Nightingale (1859) described the role of the nurse as putting “the
patient in the best condition for nature to act upon him.” Virginia Henderson
envisioned the nurse's role as helping people (sick or well) to carry out
activities that contribute to health, recovery, or a peaceful death. The
American Nurses Association (ANA) traditionally defined nursing as “the
diagnosis and treatment of human responses to actual or potential health
problems.” In response to an increased emphasis on the science of care, the
ANA now acknowledges “promotion of a caring relationship that facilitates
health and healing” as one of the four essential features of contemporary
nursing practice.
