Nursing care is able to provide such a context because it offers a sustained caring presence to the patient. Hospitality is not a philosophical concept so much as a description of how practices of medical care are performed. Nursing care opens practitioners to personal connections with the patient and family, to non-medical histories, to a patient's own description of medical events, and to matters of the spirit.
