AB In this study the researcher examined how nurses inspire and instil hope
in terminally ill HIV patients. The study therefore focuses on the
interventions, attitudes, principles and process utilized by nurses
working within a liaison psychiatry unit where in-patient care for
terminally ill HIV patients is available. Using grounded theory
methodology, the data were coded and analysed, producing an integrated
theory of hope inspiration, comprised of four core variables: reflection
in action; affirmation of worth; creating a partnership; and the
totality of the person. The researcher postulates that hope is inspired
in terminally ill HIV patients by means of nursing the totality of the
person within the context of a formed partnership, underpinned by the
affirmation of the individual's worth, which is assured by the nurse
entering into the process of reflection in action. The researcher
further suggests that hope inspiration is inextricably linked to
effective nursing practice, and is interwoven with the concepts of
nursing, caring and helping.
