Summary

The authors of this article present the information from the foreign literature on nursing and other literature sources and databases focusing on, as yet in the Czech Republic unpublished, the work of the American psychiatric nurse and nursing theorist Joyce Travelbee (1926–1973), who in 1969 described the supervision in nursing as a concept supporting the professional development of nurses. The goal of the report is to briefly introduce the readers to the issue of models and theories, not only in nursing, but also in supervision. There are basic phases of the concept of the “human-to-human relationship” from the works of Joyce Travelbee introduced and also there are parallels outlined, which the authors of the article drafted on the basis of the conceptualization of the helping relationship based on the concept of Joyce Travelbee, for their innovative use and the application of supervision, and not just in the context of clinical nursing, but also in qualification trainings of nurses in nursing degree programmes at the university level. The review study primarily uses the sources which were obtained through electronic databases like EBSCO, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed etc. Based on the textual analysis of relevant sources, we have concluded that the concept of the human-tohuman relationship, as Joyce Travelbee understands it, is simultaneously inspiring and useful for the realization of supervision in nursing.
