Özet

Konfor, hemşirelikle ilişkili tarihsel ve güncel öneme sahip bir kavramdır. Roy, Orlando, Watson, Paterson ve diğer kuramcılar hemşirelik kuramlarında konfor kavramını kullanmışlardır. Konfor kuramı Kolcaba tarafından geliştirilmiştir. Kuram, bakımın birçok yönünü kapsayan geniş bir bakış açısı sağlamaktadır. Konfor kavramı; “bireyin gereksinimleri ile ilgili yardım, huzur sağlama ve sorunların üstesinden gelebilmeye ilişkin fiziksel, psikolojik, sosyal ve çevresel bütünlük içerisinde kompleks yapıya sahip beklenen bir sonuç” olarak tanımlamaktadır.
