  • Can professional nursing value claims be refused? Might nursing values be accepted provisionally and tentatively? Martin Lipscomb Nursing Inquiry AbstractValue–act relationships are less secure than is commonly supposed and this insecurity is leveraged to address two questions. First, can nurses refuse professional value claims (e.g., claims regarding care and compassion)? Second, even when value claims are accepted, might values be held provisionally and tentatively? These questions may seem absurd. Nurses deliver care and nursing is, we are told, a profession the members of which hold and share values. However, focusing attention on the problematic nature of professional value claims qua claims permits a more conciliatory and realistic stance to be taken towards nurses holding alternative values and value interpretations. This could prove beneficial. 10.1111/nin.12621 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/
