"I am honored and delighted to recommend this text for all
nurses who cared for and care about patients."
from the Foreword by May Wykle, RN, PhD, FAAN
This book places comfort at the forefront of nursing care, by
presenting a carefully researched theory of comfort that nurses can
use as a framework for practice. Engagingly written, the book
combines a first-person account of the development of the theory
with supporting research, and practical information for its
application. Kolcaba analyzes the concept of comfort; describes its
physical, psychospiritual, environmental and sociocultural
components; evaluates its meaning in the many different contexts in
which health care occurs; and describes how it can be measured. The
appendix includes comfort care questionnaires that can be used with
patients in many settings, and a comfort scale that can be used
with patients for a quick assessment of comfort. Clinicians,
researchers, educators, and students will find this holistic
approach helpful in setting priorities and parameters for patient
care.
