DEONTHOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES AND PSYCHOLOGICAL FEATURES OF PROFESSIONAL INTERACTION OF NURSES AND PATIENTS

Abstract

The article considers deontological principles and psychological features of professional interaction of nurses and patients. It has been established that the effectiveness of the nurse’s interaction with the patient depends on her ability to establish contact with the patient. In professional activity, the nurse must adhere to the deontological rules that are the basis of various models of interaction between nurses and patients (careful care of the patient, «do no harm», ability to make quick decisions in difficult situations, conscientiousness in the performance of professional duties). The existing models of interaction between the nurse and the patient (leadership, partnership, contract, engineering, paternalistic, collegial) are outlined.
