Choose a nursing theorist/theory relevant to your nursing practice. Go to the website www.nursing-theory.org/theories-and-models/ to learn what theories exist and which one might be relevant to your practice area.
Guidelines for your paper:
1. Introduction (8 points): Provide a comprehensive description of the theorists framework. Be careful not to plagiarize your information. Remember all direct quotes are to be cited, with author, date, and page number. Description should include all major aspects of the theory, not just one part or concept. This paper is about the theory itself, not the theorist, but you may wish to include some biographical information if it is relevant.

1. Describe a specific clinical scenario (interaction with patient and/or family) that you have experienced in your practice.
