Question

Compare and contrast two nursing theories. How do they differ based on their intent, scope, and goals? Which one might be more relevant to your future role, and why?

Answer 1

#. Two nursing theories :-

1. Rosemarie Parse

created a new way to look at man, health, environment and nursing. Health and meaning are co-created by indivisible human and their environment; nursing involves having patines share views of meaning

The goal of nursing focuses on the quality of life from the client's perspective

The decision making should be from the client not the nurse

It talks about rhythmicity, phenomena and transcendence in there person's life

2. Dorothea Orem :-

Self-care activities are what people do on their own behalf to maintain health and well-being; the goal f nursing is to help clients meet their own therapeutic self-care demands

Dorothea Orem :-

theory of Self care

theory of self care deficit

theory of nursing systems

I would use the self care theory in future as it helps the patient to be independent and gives a kind of self esteem and confidence which helps in their early recovery
