Week 3 Project
Your “Personal Philosophy and Theoretical Concepts” Paper is due

Week 3 Project
Your “Personal Philosophy and Theoretical Concepts” Paper is due this week. Your paper should contain the following sections:
The Four Metaparadigms: Describe what the literature says about the basic four metaparadigms/concepts of patient, nurse, health, and environment. Do not relate the metaparadigms to the theory you have chosen.
Briefly describe the theory you have chosen.
Two Practice-Specific Concepts: in separate subsections discuss each of your two concepts:
What is the definition of the concept (outside of the theory)?
How does your theorist define your concept?
How does this concept apply to your clinical setting? Give an example of how nurses in your area provide care that correlates with the theorist’s definition of the concept.
