Concept and theory nursing
Concept and theory nursing
Compare Hendersonâs definition of nursing and the current American Nurse Association (ANA) definition of nursing. Please note the four main components to the ANAâ²s
definition - promotion of health, prevention of illness and injury, diagnosis and treatment, and advocacy. How do these four components compare to Hendersonâ²s
definition? Explain how and why the ANA definition has developed over time. If the ANA definition would be updated again, what do you feel needs to be added? Be
specific and provide reasons. Case Study In anticipation of the home health nurse visit scheduled for later in the morning, Mrs. Anderson reflected on her current
living situation: The grandchildren were late for school again! What would their mother say? Ever since Mrs. Anderson had moved in with her daughter-in-law, it seemed
that she just couldnâ²t do things the way her daughter wanted her too. She wondered if she would ever get it right. She had volunteered to make breakfast for the
children and see them off to school in the mornings, since both her son and daughter-in-law left for work before the children left for school. She felt she had to help
out somehow to repay her family. They had been helping her since before she fell and then had to have surgery. Her hip was healing nicely after the surgery and the
doctor said she might be able to stop using the walker soon, but it seemed to be taking too long to her. The medicines were so difficult to take. The calcium pills
were so big! Sometimes she just wanted to be back in her little apartment and be taking care of herself by herself. She just didnâ²t understand why everyone thought she
would forget to eat or take care of herself. She was doing just fine!! She did very well when she was helping her late husband Fred. She helped with the bathing and
turning and getting him out of bed when he couldnâ²t walk anymore. The home health nurses always told her what a good job she was doing with her husband. It just didnâ²t
seem like 9 months since he had passed away. What factors should be considered when the nurse assesses the self-care agency of Mrs. Anderson in order to determine Mrs.
Andersonâ²s nursing care needs? What self-care deficits can be identified for Mrs. Anderson? Using Oremâ²s Theory of Self-Care Deficits, develop a plan of care for Mrs.
Anderson. Develop 1 nursing diagnosis with nursing interventions. What additional nursing theory (from the ones we had discussed) would you incorporate into Mrs.
Andersonâs care to provide additional support? Explain how you would apply the theory to this case and how the theory would change the plan of care. All the above
should be developed into a Power Point. Power Point should include at least 3 outside references and the textbook. It should include title and reference slides and be
14-20 slides.
