dc.description.abstractWritten narratives of 15 Ugandan nurses’ experience of caring for persons dying from Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever were analyzed using van Manen’s (1990) phenomenological approach. From these narratives emerged the description of caring for persons as affirmation of knowing and the uncertainty of living life while consciously waiting and protecting self through isolation from family and society, and the selfless dedication of giving one’s life for others. Within this description is attributed the foci on health promotion, illness prevention, and early intervention as recommendations for effective nursing in community wellness practiceen_US
