The author views healing presence through the model, I described above. Healing presence is a hierarchical model that I have never thought about before. The author’s viewpoints are very interesting and thought-provoking. I agree, that healing presence is essential for a healthy nurse-patient relationship. The patient and nurse both gain many positive outcomes from this vital interaction. This hierarchical model of presence, assisted me in improving my understanding of presencing. I love the stage approach to this model, as I will use it to ensure I give each of my patient the best possible care. Hence, healing presence is a concept that is beneficial to the nurse-patient interaction, as well as, the healing process of the patient.
