Abstract

The focus on internalisation in the education of nurses and the possibilities for students nurses to do some of their practical and clinical education abroad has emphasised the need for developing a new discipline within the nursing science — Comparative Nursing.The authors have designed a comparative nursing model a like the comparative education model taking the critic of Bereday's inductive model and the nature of nursing science into account. The authors tested the model in four different European countries; in Estonia, Norway, The Nederlands and Denmark.The field observations in the European countries visited were all compared with field observations on similar wards and institutions in Denmark. And the model was found useful as it showed some cultural and social economical differences in the way the registered nurses carried out their nursing duties to the users of the nursing services.
