Popis: This continuing education article analyzes Sumner's theory, the moral construct of caring in nursing as communicative action. The dissemination of the theory includes the development of an instrument, its application to nursing administration, and its promise for use in patient care situations. It serves as a framework for nurses providing direct care to patients to reexamine the nurse–patient relationship.
