Personal Nursing philosophy<\/p>\n
Assignment 3: Concept Synthesis Paper on Personal Nursing Philosophy
Overview
You are required to submit a scholarly paper in which you will identify, describe, research, and apply the concepts that underlie your personal philosophy for<\/p>\n
professional nursing practice.
This will help you identify your own values and beliefs about the established metaparadigms and metatheories of the discipline. It will also help you identify and<\/p>\n
articulate concepts relevant to your specific practice. This paper is intended to be an exercise in clarification and organization of your professional foundation. You<\/p>\n
are also required to provide a list of assumptions from personal nursing practice that illustrate the concepts and framework of your theory.
Your paper should follow a format that includes:
\u2022 Nursing Autobiography: A brief (1 page) discussion of your background in nursing.
\u2022 The Four Metaparadigms: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on the basic four metaparadigms\/concepts of<\/p>\n
patient, nurse, health, and environment.
\u2022 Two Practice-Specific Concepts: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on at least two other concepts specific<\/p>\n
to your own practice.
\u2022 List of Propositions: A numbered list of at least five propositions or assumption statements that clearly connect the concepts described.<\/p>\n
Consider the following questions as you complete your various tasks related to this assignment.
1. How do I define and employ the four basic metaparadigms of nursing theory in my professional practice?
2. What are the major concepts I employ that are unique to my professional practice?
3. What philosophies and theories from the literature of nursing and other disciplines\/domains are consistent with these concepts?
4. How are the concepts of transcultural nursing, the health promotion model, skill acquisition, role theory, and change theory specifically integrated into my<\/p>\n
philosophy and practice?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
5. What research supports these theories and concepts?
6. How do I integrate role and change theory into my professional practice and how may these theories be applied to the organization in which I practice?
The paper is to be thoroughly researched and well documented, with relevant material from the nursing theorists presented incorporated into the paper. Use the current<\/p>\n
edition of the APA Manual throughout the paper. Sources should focus on references from nursing theory but may also include conceptual and theoretical material from<\/p>\n
other professional domains. The paper, excluding references or appendices, is to be limited to 6-10 pages. Writing should be succinct and well organized, as it is<\/p>\n
impossible for the facilitator to evaluate form and content separately.
Your philosophy\/framework is to be given a title that is appropriate to its content and emphasis.
