Caring as Unending Expression of Nursing (CUEN) : A Theory of Nursing

---

Caring as Unending Expression of Nursing (CUEN) emerged to describe clinical nursing practice as basis to knowledge development of the discipline. This is grounded in the theory of Nursing as Caring. Concepts, theories and statements are derived-synthesized and critically analyzed using Explanatory multivariate regression tree (MRT) as an approach to develop the new theory. Based from analyses, CUEN Theory sees the person as dignified being, who lives and grows in caring environment from moment-tomoment. The person is whole and complete as he embodies the caring attitude by virtue of his humanness. The basic premise of CUEN is that all human beings are caring in nature; and that anybody showing and doing expressions of unending care is considered a nurse because to be human is to be called to live one's innate caring nature. The caring according to this theory is intentional expression of nursing care to the nursed, who is recognized as person, living, growing in caring environment. CUEN assumed that Personhood is a process of living grounded in caring and Personhood is enhanced through nurturing relationships by caring for others. The practice of CUEN becomes evident when the nurse acknowledges herself as tool for caring; communicates properly in a manner so that it transpired in the nursing situation; offers option so patient makes choices without coercion or force; and conjointly advanced to materialize the identified options. The complete execution of the recognized intervention will come to play thus creating nursing situation. It is recommended that CUEN be applied to practice for validation in the light of the different philosophical bases.
