Nurse-Patient Relationship
Series of interaction between the nurse and the patient in which the nurse assists the patient to
attain positive behavioural change.
1.

Characteristics
NPR
Social Relationship
Phases
A. Pre-Interaction Phase
- begins when the nurse IS assigned/chooses a patient
- phase of NPR in which patient is excluded as an active participant
- nurse feels certain degree of anxiety
- includes all of what the nurse thinks and does before interacting with the patient
Major task of the nurse:
to develop self-awareness
Other tasks:
data gathering, planning for first interaction
B. Orientation Phase
- when the nurse-patient interacts for the first time
- parameters of the relationship are laid
- nurse begins to know about the patient
Major task:
to develop a mutually acceptable contract
Other tasks:
determine why the patient sought help
establish rapport, develop trust, assessment
C. Working Phase
- it is highly individualized
- more structured than the orientation phase
- the longest and most productive phase of the nurse-patient relationship
- limit setting is employed
Major task:
identification and resolution of the patients problems
Other tasks:
Planning and implementation
D. Termination Phase
- it is a gradual weaning process
- it is a mutual agreement
- it involves feeling of anxiety, fear and loss
- it should be recognized in the orientation phase
- it should be recognized in the orientation phase
Major task:
to assist the patient to review what he has learned and transfer his learning to his

The nurse views the patient as a Holistic human being with interdependent and
interrelated needs.
The nurse accepts the patient as a unique being with inherent value and worth exactly as
he is.
The nurse should focus on the patients strengths and assets and not on his weakness and
liabilities.
The nurse views the patients behaviour non-judgmentally, while assisting the patient to
learn more adaptive ways of coping.
The nurse should explore the patients behaviour for the need it is designed to meet and
message it is communicating.
The nurse has the potential for establishing a nurse-patient relationship with most if not
all patients.
The quality of the nurse-patient relationship determine the degree of positive change that
can occur in the patients behaviour.
