Generating Oncology Patient Trust in the Nurse: An Integrative Review.
- Authors
Rajcan, Lois; Lockhart, Joan Such; Goodfellow, Linda M.
- Abstract
An integrative review was conducted to evaluate the extent and quality of literature regarding adult oncology patients' trust in nurses. Nineteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Three themes were identified, which are as follows: nurse trust facilitating behaviors, nurse attributes, and the influence of patient-nurse trust on health and psychosocial well-being. Findings indicate that the extent of literature is limited in specific examples of nurse interventions that facilitate interpersonal patient-nurse trust. Future research should include more detailed nurse actions and attributes that build patient-nurse trust to fully understand the benefits of trust in oncology patients.
