In this column the author synthesizes and discusses the findings of six studies conducted to examine what happens for nurses and patients when human becoming is the guide for practice. In all of the studies, nurse participants’ descriptions led to three main themes: transforming intent, unburdening joy, and struggling with change. Patient and family participants’ descriptions of nursing care guided by human becoming are also summarized. This column concludes with a presentation of the universal and overarching values for knowledge development in nursing that emerged with the synthesis of the findings and that have the potential to ensure personalized, meaningful, and dignified nursing service delivery.

Key Words: evaluation research • human becoming • knowledge development • nursing theory-guided practice • universal values
