Human to human relationship of Joyce Travelbee inspires me a lot because of her theory, I found out that a good relationship to patient and to all the people that surrounds me and with the patient is needed especially when in the state of crisis. I remembered the advises that my college instructor taught me in theoretical foundation in nursing "that treat your patient or client as your family", I realized, that there so many things that we can do to help needy person even if you don't know the person that much, what is important, you know how to relate yourself to others. To give them the quality care that their deserve.

The ideas of her theory are applicable to a hospital, nursing home or hospice setting. Rapport being the last stage is very important overall. The idea of her theory is fully functional when rapport is involved. Because rapport means giving trust to some that you don't know.  

Like what Joyce Travelbee said, “A nurse does not only seek to alleviate physical pain or render physical care – she ministers to the whole person. The existence of suffering, whether physical, mental or spiritual is the proper concern of the nurse.” These words of Joyce Travelbee are very encouraging and touching.

I believed that the Human-to-human Relationship Model shows promise in providing improved patient care for the future. It transcends the idea of the physical and helps focus on the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of the patient. This type of treatment for sick people allows a holistic approach and greets them with genuine interest. When other methods fail, alternatives are considered in hopes to give a patient the best possible care.
