Theoretical Foundations in Nursing Week 1- Personal Nursing Philosophy

After reading this week’s assigned chapters, think about your nursing philosophy. In your own words, discuss your philosophy of nursing. Reflect on the definition of the four concepts of the nursing meta-paradigm. Write your own definition for each concept of the meta-paradigm of nursing. Which concept would you add to the meta-paradigm of nursing and why? Which concept would you eliminate and why?

Your paper should be 1–2 pages in length, in APA format, typed in Times New Roman with 12-point font, and double-spaced with 1" margins. Cite at least one outside source using APA format.

Recommended: Before you begin, review chapters 13 and 14 in A Pocket Style Manual (APA)
