Abstract

This research study is a description of the experience of receiving nursing care for homeless mothers. Nine homeless mothers, who described their experience of receiving nursing care, were selected as participants. Using a phenomenological approach to guide the inquiry, narrative descriptions were generated from interviews with each participant. The homeless mothers' experience of receiving nursing care is described in two essential descriptive themes: (1) being homeless, and (2) receiving nursing care. The implications of these mothers' experience for nursing education, practice, and research are discussed.
