Abstract

When obstacles stand in the way of achievement of a goal frustration is experienced by the patient. Nurses who recognize and appreciate those aspects of experience that are felt as frustrating to a patient and who recognize the kinds of behavior that arise in response to such experiences are in a better position to plan with the patient novel ways of meeting the difficulty. In this chapter an hypothesis on the nature and consequences of frustration will be discussed. Frustrations are common occurrences in nursing situations, as they are in all other experiences in which people are involved.
