The literature published between 1989 and 2011 in the care of nursing and non-nursing (health, medicine, etc.) were selected for searching scientific databases. After applying the selection criteria and final sampling, 2 books, 65 articles and a graduate thesis in the area of nursing and non-nursing (health, medicine, etc.) were selected and analyzed.
