application of concepts from caring science

/in /by

Summary: A theory can be used to guide practice.  This assignment is an exercise in supporting a clinical practice with theory and evidence.Directions: Identify an outcome of nursing practice in your area of practice that can be improved.  For example, if you work in home health, you may identify that throw rug use by fall risk patients is too prevalent.  You may be able to use the problem that inspired the theory concepts that you developed in week two.Briefly support why it is a problem with evidence from the literature. This is not the major focus of the assignment so do not elaborate.Create a clinical nursing (not medical) theory in the form Concept A | Proposition | Concept B. Think of the structure like two nouns and a verb. While the term proposition is much more complex in the dictionary, in our use it is the connecting term between the two concepts. Examples include Concept A improves Concept B, Concept A is related to Concept B, when Concept A increases then Concept B also increases, etc. When you get to research, you will explore this further as you develop independent and dependent variables. How to use these statistically will come in research and statistics courses.This clinical theory is identified as an empirical theory when you get to the C-T-E model later in this course. It is empirical in that they can be measured.Identify and define your concepts. Identify how they could be measured in a research study. Be careful that you do not use compound concepts. If you find the words “and” or “or” in your theory, you are probably too complex.If you research your question and seek funding, you will need a theoretical model to guide the research. In our assignment, we are using Watson. You will identify the concepts in Watson’s theories that are represented by the concepts you are using in your clinical theory. Match the proposition in her theory with your proposition. To help, the 10 Caritas Processes are Concept A. Choose the one that matches your concept. To clarify, let’s look at Caritas 1 Embrace and use it in middle-range theory. Sustaining humanistic-altruistic values by the practice of loving-kindness, compassion, and equanimity with self/others (Concept A – Very complex and abstract) improves (Proposition) subjective inner healing (Concept B).Remember that the paper is not about the problem. It is about constructing a clinical theory and matching it to a middle-range theory and conceptual model your clinical theory represents.Conclude the paper with your discoveries made in your readings and the impact on the nursing profession of your discoveries. Explore, briefly, discovered questions that require further research. Summarize the paper in the conclusion.Present your outcome in an APA formatted paper that meets the University’s standards for a written assignment.Length: 7 pages including title and reference pagesReferences: 3 to 10.  There should be enough to support the links between the concepts of the problem and the concepts of Watson’s Theory of Caring.

Use an action verbs (explore, examine, utilize, demonstrate, apply, analyze, define describe, interpret, prove, illustrate, distinguish, propose, devise, construct, defend, compare.)Each action should be associated with one or more resources and with evidence.Resources are anything that can be used to realize the actions to be taken towards the learning goals, such as a mentor or coach, books, courses, travel and the Internet, Note: once a resource has been applied to a goal it is often helpful to rate the effectiveness of the resource.Evidence is used to demonstrate that an action has been taken, that progress towards the goal has been made, and finally that the goal has been achieved.Example Learning GoalTo organize a weekend hiking group to explore various trails on the Bruce Trail
