Abstract
Acritical social theory interpretation of the “ideal” nurse in the caring in nursing relationship suggests the ideal is difficult but nurses strive for this. The ten expert nurses from an international study acknowledged the nurse’s vulnerability, frustration, and need for validation and fulfillment in the “special” role of the nurse. This interpretation was based on a framework developed from Habermas’ (1995) Theory of Moral Consciousness and Communicative Action in which the components of the personal and professional self of the nurse are described then interpreted. Critical social theory examines power and justice, which is relevant in today’s healthcare delivery system.
