Nursing has evolved over time and the care provided by nurses must adapt to these changes. Today we live in a world where new technologies are used everywhere. Nurses must remain rooted in human care while at the same time adapting to these advances. Nursing must not simply become a technical practice. Locsin's theory of technological competence as nursing works to frame the relationship between nursing and the use of technology. Summary Known as a contemporary theorist, Locsin's perspective on caring for and understanding human beings refers to the paradigm of simultaneity. According to this paradigm, people are believed to be more than the sum of their parts. People are considered whole at all times, regardless of whether they are ill or whether technologies are used on them. The role of nursing is not to fix the broken patient or make him whole, but to care for and fully know the patient. He sees technology as an extension of care that allows for a greater sense of knowing. The idea of ​​knowledge is a central idea in all of Locsin's work. Knowing is a mutual process between the nurse and those being breastfed. They must meet and get to know each other to have mutual knowledge and acceptance (Locsin, The Culture of Technology: Defining Transformation in Nursing, from "The Lady with a Lamp" to "Robonurse"?, 2001). The person being cared for is thought to be unique and requires creative and imaginative ways to be cared for. Today's technologies have created innovative ways to care for these people. Locsin does not define a human being as a purely natural being, but refers to those who have implanted devices such as cardiac pacemakers, insulin pumps and artificial limbs as if they were whole (Locsin R., 2010). ...... middle of paper ...... connect with your patients who may not be close at hand. Is it possible to get to know yourself completely through television or a computer screen? I hope that Locsin's theory will be used as a framework for study in the future.
