What is nursing? What differentiates nursing from medicine or other health care disciplines? Nursing consists of art and science. The art part is caring and compassion. The science part is specialized knowledge and skills. Putting these 2 parts together, nursing takes part in restoring, maintaining,and promoting health across the life span.
