Abstract:

Nowadays, multidiscipline studies on emotional intelligence (EI) increase gradually. Therapeutic relationships that are closely relevant to EI in nursing organizations can establish a harmonic care environment and promote the rehabilitation of patients. But the effects of EI on nursing education still need to be supported by theoretic studies. Monitoring tools for EI improve gradually, while the training of EI is still a research difficulty and lacks measuring and evaluating methods. This paper reviews current researches of EI in nursing organizations.
