NURSING THEORY

The nursing profession has evolved greatly over time. Moving from dependence
upon total medical direction providing basic care into an independent practice
modality, nursing has its own nursing theory practice, nursing models, and
distinct nursing interventions. Nursing theories have been developed by a large
number of leaders in the nursing field. Below is a list of major nursing
theorists who have contributed to the development of professional nursing
practice into what it is today.

to practice as a nurse in the health care field.

DEFINITION OF NURSING

From the earliest nuns who cared for the sick and dying to the modern men and
women who work in hospitals, clinics, and homes to help people achieve and
maintain health, nursing is a way to get involved in the health care industry
and work with patients on a personal level.

NURSING TECHNIQUES

Part of working as a nurse is deciding how to approach and care for individual
patients and their families. As with any career involving people, there is no
set formula on how to deal with and treat patients.
