There are five concepts mentioned by Alligood (2010), they are the following: • Nurses function • Presenting behavior or problem situation • Immediate reaction • Reflective inquiry • Improvement in resolving dilemma (p. 339). In Chitty (2010) one of many theories discussed in nursing explores Ida Orlando’s Theory of the coined process of “Deliberate Nursing (Alligood, 2010, p. 346). Her theory is the cornerstone of the “nursing process” (Chitty, 2010, p. 315). Her theory is one, which has shaped nursing on the premise of “how to improve the patient’s condition by figuring out what they need through the nurses interaction with the patient?” (Chitty, 2010, p. 314). By interactions, verbal and non-verbal can illuminate the problem, which is the immediate concern. Orlando is the one that initiated the patient-centered focus by “involving the patients’ in the decision making process” (Chitty, 2010, p. 315). Her theory...

Please see the “Nursing Theorists’ Grading Criteria” document, located on the Materials page of the student Web site. Name: Steve Early Theorist Selected: Sr. Callista Roy Description of Theory: Sister Callista Roy believed that “Humans are bio-psycho-social beings existing within an environment. Needs are created within interrelated adaptive modes: physiological, self-concept, role function, and interdependence” (Taylor 74). Sr. Roy believed that the patient’s modes of adaption were partly innate and partly acquired behaviors; if the behaviors are appropriately applied there is an increase in health restoration. According to "Nursing Theory" (2011), The nursing theory was named “The Adaptation Model,” and includes a “six step nursing process: 1) The first level of assessment, which addresses the patient's behavior, 2)The second level of assessment, which addresses the patient's stimuli, 3)Diagnosis of the patient, 4)Setting goals for the patient's health, 5)Intervention to take actions in order to meet those goals, and 6)Evaluation of the result to determine if goals were met.” Theory’s Historical background: Sister Callista Roy is considered a living legend as she has been awarded various acknowledgements for her contributions to nursing. Sr. Roy developed the Adaptation Model in 1976, and for the past 36 years, she has been researching...

...University of Phoenix Material Nursing Theorist Grid 1. Theorist Selected: Ida Orlando Description of key points of the theory: Orlando's Deliberative Nursing Process has a framework that consists of five concepts. 1. Professional Nursing Function is the organizing principle- The patient is the focal point in nursing. The nurse must find out and meet the immediate need the patient. 2. Patient's presenting behavior- problematic situation. When the patient's equilibrium is offset he/she exhibits behaviors that draw the nurses' attention. 3. Immediate reaction- Internal Response is a proactive response that causes the nurse to have an automatic response that is cognitive and affective (Alligood, 2010). According to the nurse’s interpretation of the patient's behavior, therefore, the nurse need to assess the situation first to gain an understanding of the problem. 4. Deliberative Nursing Process-Reflective Inquiry views the patient and nurse as a functional unit that draws from each other. The nurse’s behavior affects the patient, and the patient's behavior affects the nurse. To better understand the patient the nurse must focus on the actuality of the problem instead of assuming what the problem may be. This part of the theory is deliberate because the nurse must separate their immediate observation, thoughts, and feelings from each other (Alligood, 2010). Orlando (Alligood, 2010) brings to our attention as nurses that we should not assume that we have corrected...

...central goal of nursing and medicine. Comfort was the nurse's first consideration. A "good nurse" made patients comfortable. In the early 1900's, textbooks emphasized the role of a health care provider in assuring emotional and physical comfort and in adjusting the patient's environment. For example, in 1926, Harmer advocated that nursing care be concerned with providing an atmosphere of comfort. In the 1980's, a modern inquiry of comfort began. Comfort activities were observed. Meanings of comfort were explored. Comfort was conceptualized as multidimensional (emotional, physical, spiritual). Nurses provided comfort through environmental interventions. It was in this decade that Kolcaba began to develop a theory of comfort when she was a graduate student at Case Western Reserve in Cleveland, Ohio. She is currently a nursing professor at the University of Akron in Ohio. Kolcaba's (1992) theory was based on the work of earlier nurse theorists, including Orlando (1961), Benner, Henderson, Nightingale, Watson (1979), and Henderson and Paterson. Other non-nursing influences on Kolcaba's work included Murray (1938). The theory was developed using induction (from practice and experience), deduction (through logic), and from retroaction concepts (concepts from other theories). The basis of Kolcaba's theory is a taxonomic structure or grid that has 12 cells (Kolcaba, 1991; Kolcaba & Fisher, 1996). Three types of comfort are listed at the top of the grid and four contexts...

...DOROTHEA OREM Dorothea Orem Jennifer VandenEykel University of Phoenix NUR 403 Theories and Models of Nursing Practice January 8, 2012 Mary McGill, RN, MSN DOROTHEA OREM Nursing Theorist Grid Theorist Selected: Dorothea Orem Description of Theory: “ The central philosophy of the self-care deficit Nursing theory is that all patients want to care for themselves, and they are able to recover more quickly and holistically by performing their own self-care as much as they are able. “ ( Nursing-theory.org, 2011) There are three requirements to the self-care theory. The first requirement is the patient to be able to obtain basic human needs: air, food, rest and water. The second area that is a necessity is the maturity level the ability of that person to know when there is a chance of compromise in their growth and development. The final are is when it is necessary for the nurse to step in to provide care, support and education for the patient to maintain health. To summarize the beliefs of Dorothea Orem she strongly believes that a person should strive to provide care for themselves and members of their family. When a person is able to meet the standard self care needs and maintain the proper state of well-being according to their developmental stage they are at an optimal state of health. A person must take opportunities presented to them for receiving education about preventing health problems. Ultimately a person is either independent...

...Nursing Theory Grid Nurse4682 NUR/403 February 12, 2012 Athena Brummett Theorist Selected: Ida Jean Orlando Description of Theory: Ida Orlando developed the theory of deliberative nursing process. The focus of this theory is on the patient determining their needs and how to meet their needs. She wrote about the interaction between the nurse and the patient's perception validation, and the use of the nursing process to produce positive outcomes. She wanted to define the function of nursing. She described nursing as unique and independent and the focus was on the patients need for help. This expressed need for help lead to a reaction in the nurse (Butts & Rich, 2010). Ida Orlando believed that her theory could be applied to patients with surgical, medical, obstetric, as well as psychiatric conditions and can be applied to both children and adults who are treated either at home, in the hospital, or clinic setting (Alligood, 2010). Theory's Historical background: Ida Orlando was born in the year of 1926. She earned her nursing degree in 1947 from a school of nursing at a hospital in New York. She went on to earn her B.S. in 1951 and her M.A. in mental health in 1954. While working as an associate professor in mental health at Yale University. She had a desire to learn about the role of nurses in mental health, where she received a grant to further...

...Change Project NUR 492 November 10, 2014 Dr. Christine Markut Change Project Today’s healthcare providers are struggling more than ever to provide high quality care while controlling the costs of healthcare. The demands of an aging population and shortage of medical personnel have brought challenges to the medical office and physicians somehow need to improve their access. Instead of limiting the time patients are able to spend with their physician discussing their medical concerns, why not increase the time and make it more effective for both the patient and the physician. Incorporating GMA’s may allow our physicians to see more patients, provide more care, and increase practice revenue. The patient benefits with increased access to the provider as well as receiving significant education with their peers that suffer from the same medical conditions (Rhee, 2013). This is a win – win situation for the organization and patients. Patients are typically allotted 15 to 30 minutes to discuss their concerns with the physician but with group medical appointments (GMA), patients are actually able to spend up to 90 minutes with their provider. GMA’s offer an alternative structure in the way effective and efficient care is delivered to chronically ill patients (Schmucker, 2006) and it allows greater interaction time with the provider. A GMA will typically involve approximately 8-12 patients while all of the components of individual appointments can be delivered to include: one-on-one...

...using this technique commonly identify a set of five trait dimensions. These Big Five personality traits include extroversion, neuroticism, conscientiousness, agreeableness, and openness to experience (Pervin & John, 2001). which I found out that I’m marginal or no preference of Extraversion over Introversion is (1%), slight preference of Intuition over Sensing is (12%), moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking is (25%) and slight preference of Judging over Perceiving is (6%) after taking the big five test online. Therefore once one identifies a set of basic traits in this manner, a primary question is to identify where the traits come from. Why do some people have more or less of a given trait than others? Almost all trait theorists have sought biological explanations for variations in traits. People are seen to inherit a given level of a trait in the same way that they might inherit hair color or height. The trait theories, then, have an interesting implication for the question of parental...

.... Organization Theory Challenges and Perspectives John McAuley, Joanne Duberley and Phil Johnson . This book is, to my knowledge, the most comprehensive and reliable guide to organisational theory currently available. What is needed is a text that will give a good idea of the breadth and complexity of this important subject, and this is precisely what McAuley, Duberley and Johnson have provided. They have done some sterling service in bringing together the very diverse strands of work that today qualify as constituting the subject of organisational theory. Whilst their writing is accessible and engaging, their approach is scholarly and serious. It is so easy for students (and indeed others who should know better) to trivialize this very problematic and challenging subject. This is not the case with the present book. This is a book that deserves to achieve a wide readership. Professor Stephen Ackroyd, Lancaster University, UK This new textbook usefully situates organization theory within the scholarly debates on modernism and postmodernism, and provides an advanced introduction to the heterogeneous study of organizations, including chapters on phenomenology, critical theory and psychoanalysis. Like all good textbooks, the book is accessible, well researched and readers are encouraged to view chapters as a starting point for getting to grips with the field of organization theory. Dr Martin Brigham, Lancaster University, UK McAuley et al. provide a highly readable account...

...ARTICLES A Kind Word for Theory X: Or Why So Many Newfangled Management Techniques Quickly Fail Michael P. Bobic Emmanuel College William Eric Davis Community College Southern Nevada ABSTRACT Forty-three years ago, Douglas McGregor’s The Human Side of Enterprise offered managers a new assumption of management (Theory Y), which would be more effective than what he considered then-current management assumptions (Theory X). While McGregor’s Theory Y model has been widely adopted in management literature as the preferred model, Theory X management still persists in practice. Moreover, many efforts to introduce management initiatives based on Theory Y have failed to reform the workplace or worker attitudes. While most explanations of these failures focus on training, implementation, or sabotage, this article proposes several defects in Theory Y that have contributed to these failures. Theory Y is based upon an incomplete theory of human motivation that erroneously assumes that all people are creative (and want to be creative) in the same way. Important research by Michael Kirton presents a different model of creativity that explains the failure of Theory Y and justifies Theory X as an important managerial theory and strategy. Theory X persists not because of circumstances or the nature of particular jobs, but because different people have personalities that respond to Theory X management better than to Theory Y management. But if the times and circumstances change, [a...
