Analyze theories from nursing and relevant fields with respect to their components, relationships among the components, logic of the propositions, comprehensiveness, and utility to advanced nursing. (PO#1)
It is essential to understand why the nursing profession has a theoretical framework. The existence of a theoretical framework is one attribute that makes nursing a profession. Nursing theory is designed to define and construct the framework for nursing practice. Nursing theory may be used to provide structure and organization when collecting data and explaining nursing practice (McEwen & Willis, 2014). Nursing theory is also used to advance nursing practice.
As you read through the assigned chapters, carefully examine the theory that best fits your nursing practice. When reviewing the theories that best fits your nursing practice, consider how your personal values that you hold are reflected in the nursing theories.
Reflect on the following questions.
Why is nursing theory important to the nursing profession? What theoretical concepts do you believe are most significant to your nursing practice? Identify the nursing theory that has been implemented in your current clinical setting. McEwen, M., & Wills, E. (2014). Theoretical basis for nursing. (4th ed.). Philadelphia, PA: Lippincott Williams and Wilkins.

For many students enrolled in NR 501, this is an initial course for nursing theory. So, let’s have a debate!!! Is nursing theory important to the nursing profession? If you believe that it is important, explain why it is useful. If you do not believe that it is useful, explain why nursing theory is not necessary to the profession? Be sure to provide an example that demonstrates your opinion and a scholarly reference (not using the required textbook or lesson) which supports your opinion.
