This keepsake book contains a collection of lived out stories written by caregivers as they go about their day-to-day work, revealing a personal or professional truth/value system which in become exemplars of the Watson 10 Caritas Processes® — the core of the Theory of Human Caring. The collection in this book originated from participants taking a free online course entitled ‘Caring Science Mindful Practice‘ facilitated by Kathleen Sitzman.

‘These stories cross and transcend cultures, roles, professions, borders and boundaries in locations around the world… uniting us in our humanity, across time and space, congruent with an online virtual world of today, whereby space connects, rather than separates.’  ~ Jean Watson, PhD, RN, AHN-BC, FAAN, LL (AAN)
