Nurses have been identified as key players in moving quality of care forward. Nursing knowledge guides nurses as they provide that care. The author in this column explores Parse�s theory of humanbecoming and nursing�s engagement in health policy. Current focus on the person as primary decision maker in healthcare is congruent with the theory�s key concept of quality of life as defined by the person or community. The author provides several examples of how humanbecoming has been used to guide policy activities and decisions and offers suggestions for the future.
