MIDDLE RANGE NURSING THEORIES

1.The birth of a child is one of the most memorable experiences in a woman’s life. You are a birth unit nurse, and at the change of a shift you are assigned to care for a teen mother who came to hospital alone and is now in active labor. When you arrive in her room, you notice that she is teary and appears frightened. Describe how you would apply Swanson’ s theory to connect emotionally and deliver caring in your practice with this young mother. (NOTE: USE SWANSON'S THEORY OF CARING)

2. An elderly Arab-American Muslim man who spoke little English was admitted to the hospital for increasing pain in his left foot while at rest. His foot was cool and pale, and he had a history of vascular surgical procedures. He had many chronic health problems, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. He also had had a myocardial infarction and several cerebral vascular accidents. While in the hospital, he developed abdominal pain and underwent a cholecystectomy. This elderly grandfather had a large family, including a wife, nine children, and many grandchildren. His wife insisted that all family members visit him every day while he was in the hospital. The family wanted the man’s face turned toward Mecca (toward the East) while they prayed with him. They brought tape-recorded passages from the Koran, which they played at his bedside. Other families who were visiting their sick relatives complained to the nurses that the Arab family was taking up the entire waiting room, and there was no place for anyone else to sit.

As a nurse, how might you use the three modes from the Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality to provide culturally congruent care for this elderly man and his family, as well as for the other clients and their families in the critical care unit? (NOTE: RELATE TO THEORY OF CULTURE CARED DIVERSITY AND UNIVERALITY)
