Özet
The use of theories and models in nursing care contributes to the scientific foundation of nursing practice. Jean Watson's Human Caring Model, one of the prominent nursing theories, is based on concepts such as interpersonal caring relationships, caring moments and healing processes, and it effectively reflects the essence of nursing. This model has been applied comprehensively to address the care process for urinary tract infections, one of the most common complications encountered by patients practicing clean intermittent catheterisation. Nursing interventions and outcomes for a patient practicing clean intermittent catheterisation were evaluated using the Human Caring Model. This model facilitated the implementation of nursing care and the treatment process, leading to infection parameters returning to normal ranges. Additionally, it contributed to increased adherence to and motivation for clean intermittent catheterisation. It is suggested that nursing care for urinary tract infections observed in individuals practicing clean intermittent catheterisation can raise awareness among nurses and caregivers about addressing the patient holistically, including physical, socio-cultural, psychological and spiritual dimensions.
