Abstract

This short account of an episode of nursing care explains the idea of phenomenology and its relationship to professional practice. The author provides a brief overview of phenomenological thinking. A case study illustrates both Husserlian and Heideggerian ideas of phenomenology as he applies them reflexively to ease what the author describes as the ‘craft’ of nursing. The author affords a glimpse of the ‘lived experience’ of illness through this reflection on care provision and concludes with the suggestion that co-constituency forms a basis for all relationships.
