Reflection on a nursing theory class and nursing theories

According to nursing theory, I tend to believe that nursing is more of a state of mind that involves service to humans. Once one chooses to become a have nursing as his or her profession, that signifies how one could plant a soil seed. In this case, you have planted a seed on your soul. The seed will either wither or grow and flourish, depending on your attitude towards serving people. If it withers away, it means you will lead a miserable, failing nursing career, which is so unfortunate to you. However, if the seed grows and flourishes, it means you will prosper in your education and career. Nursing offers more offer a vision or way of life, leading to satisfaction, not necessarily a career.

       I.           It will help me determine my direction towards my future.

The theory will help me understand if I am passionate about nursing or not. This will help me know if I have the qualities required, leading to my prosperity or failure in the field.

     II.           Serves a reason for scientific nursing interventions

The theories give nurses the basic knowledge required to act and respond appropriately to their patients, depending on their needs.

   III.           Helps nurses to understand their role in a health setting

The theories clearly outline the scope the nurses should venture into, as well as their primary task in ensuring they offer quality and best care to patients (The Importance of Nursing Theory in Nursing Education).
