Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
「触れる」「触れられる」事象についての過去の研究を概観すると、物理的に触れること、あるいは触れられることを前提として研究がなされてきた経緯がある。しかしながら、ケアの場においては、「心に触れる」「触れ合う」ということがその人にとっての健康回復に大きく関わる状況もあることから、その事象の体験構造を明らかにすることで、触れることが看護技術としてどのようになり立ち得るのかを探求する意義がある。本研究は、十分なケアが満足や気持ちよさ、嬉しさを引き出すことや、傍にいて声掛けをすることなどが、相手の感覚の取り戻しや、意欲、満足感につながっていることが明らかとなり、触れることの本質構造を明らかにできた。
