Abstract

|
|
This article aims to study how to improve the social perception on nurses by exploring the relationship between nursing and heroism. Heroism science regards nursing as heroic by nature and encourages nurses to understand and carry out their potential through a recognition of heroic acts in nursing. Accepting such perspective, we claim that the awareness of nursing as heroism should be deeply permeated into our society because it helps nurses recover high self-esteem and reestablish their identity, act more courageously, and ultimately boost social wellness. And hero training contents or programs in nursing and legal safeguards for heroic acts of nurses are needed to be created and operated, and additionally, everyday nurse heroes should be actively discovered and widely known to the public.
