AGUERO CARO, Magdalena. The need for a phenomenological perspective on caring in the nursing curriculumLa necesidad de una perspectiva fenomenológica acerca del cuidado en el currículo enfermero. Invest. educ. enferm [online]. 2013, vol.31, n.1, pp.142-145. ISSN 0120-5307.

Herein, we reflect upon the incorporation of the phenomenological perspective of caring to the nursing curriculum, bearing in mind the multi-referential orientation nursing research has been adopting in recent decades. We addressed the relevance of the perception and subjective interpretation nurses and users make of the process they are experiencing in a caring relationship as a phenomenological experience. Knowing and understanding the complexity of the world of meanings, both one's own as well as that of another, will facilitate in students the possibility to provide caring situated within a meeting space between these two subjective worlds.
