Through Watson’s 10 caritas processes theory, students are taught to care for patients’ all-around wellbeing — their physical health, but also their emotional and spiritual state. According to nursing professor Echo Koehler, Watson’s lessons of holistic care are a central component of what professors teach in NMC’s nursing program.

Watson later further developed carative factors into 10 caritas processes, described by Jesse & Alligod (2014), where more consistent definitions of all caritas processes can be found.

A human’s health includes a high level of overall physical, mental, and social function; a general adaptive-maintenance level of daily function; and the absence of illness or the process of efforts that will lead to an absence of illness. Watson’s nursing process parallels the scientific research process. The first step is assessment.
Aim: The main objective of this analysis is to give an understanding of Watson's nursing Caritas as a concept. Design: Watson's nursing Caritas is an abstract concept, and difficult to define and operationalize because of its philosophical nature. Watson's nursing Caritas develops a clear relationship between care, caring factors, and the processes of human life.

Watson developed the caring theory based on the premise that nurses can care for patients if they also take care of themselves. Caring is a two-way street. “Watson believes that health professionals make social, moral, and scientific contributions to humankind and that nurses’ caring ideal can affect human development” (Watson, 2008, para 1).
