Description of the
Assignment:
One nursing theory will be presented as a framework to resolve a problem
occurring within one of the professional areas of leadership, education,
informatics, healthcare policy or advance clinical practice. The same nursing theory selected in
Assignment One may be used to resolve the identified problem.
A specific nursing theory
must be used. No non-nursing theories
are permitted. A category of nursing
theory (grand, middle range, practice) may not be used—only a specific,
published nursing theory is to be selected and applied to the issue or concern
important to the profession of nursing as documented in the nursing literature.
Please note: Do not rely on .com sites to identify the nursing theory as
they do not provide accurate information in all cases.
