Caritas measures are high-touch or nursing models of patient care and are part of Jean Watson's caring theory of nursing. Transpersonal caring and high-touch are important terms discussed by Dr. Watson; the latter also includes terminology such as caritas and the nursing model of care. Intentionality is a term used by Dr. Watson to indicate the need for nurses to enter every interaction with the intention of giving good care in a personalized, patient-focused manner.
