Abstract
Patients, particularly elderly patients, need nursing appropriate to their characteristics and pace, whereas 'fast nursing' is actually emphasized in Korea. Hence, this study attempts to identify the characteristics of 'slow nursing' in Korea. Walker & Avant's approach to concept analysis was performed through a literature review on the concept of 'slow nursing.' A literature search and concept analysis, using the keywords of 'slow,' 'slow nursing' and 'slow prescription' in Pubmed, Riss, NDSL, DBPIA, and Google Scholar from 2000 to 2019, yielded the following attributes of 'slow nursing': 'respect for the speed of the subject,' 'carefulness,' 'comfort in the process,' 'participation' and 'consideration of the meaning of life.' Model cases were derived based on these attributes. Predisposing factors involved in 'slow nursing' include patient malfunction, psychological deflection, indifference, fear of treatment, and lack of willingness to live. The outcomes were a discovery of patients' potential capacities, recovery of confidence, health promotion, improved communication with medical staff, confidence, and self-integrity. It is expected that the development of measurement tools using the attributes of 'slow nursing' would contribute to patient nursing and research in the future.
