Discussion #4 | Theory and Practice

Choose a Nursing Theorist from one of the following categories, and apply it to a work related situation you are dealing with. Out of respect for confidentiality, leave out any identifiers for patients , coworkers or health care institutions – and rather use generic terms.  

Give a brief overview of the Nurse Theorist and the theory and tell how it can be helpful to your work situation.  Here are some possible categories – but there are others listed in the textbook readings as well.
