TL;DR
The subject of 'role' is explored from the perspective of nursing education and the role of the nurse teacher will be used as the working example in this paper.
Abstract
A number of research studies in nursing education have drawn on the concept of 'role' when defining differing aspects of both student nurse and nurse teacher experiences. Despite the fairly wide use of the word, little attention has been given to the origins and development of the study of role. Consequently, the purpose of this paper is to explore 'role' and to consider the implications of this concept when undertaking research into the work nurses do. The subject will be explored from the perspective of nursing education and the role of the nurse teacher will be used as the working example in this paper.

An 'ideal type' tutor--student relationship was proposed from the findings and there was concensus between tutors and students that tutors acted in a caring way towards students but many constraints were identified which inhibited students with problems from seeking help from tutor and prevented tutors from offering all the help which they wished to give.
