This assignment presents a modified method for conducting a concept analysis of  one concept that is important and useful to the nurse practitioner's role.  The concept for this assignment must be supported by a published  nursing theory. The selected concept is identified, and then the elements of the analysis process are applied in order to synthesize knowledge for application, as demonstrated through the creation of a model case. Theoretical applications of the concept are also discussed. Non-nursing theories may not be used. Scholarly literature is incorporated throughout the analysis. 

Only the elements identified in this assignment should be used for this concept analysis.

Possible Concepts: The following concepts are not required; students may select one of these concepts or find another concept.
