With a consistent focus on application throughout, Nursing Theory: Utilization & Application, 5th Edition covers the development of nursing theory; the application of different nursing theories, models and philosophies; and the expansion of these practices with a look toward the future. This text provides the opportunity for students who have learned the background of nursing theory using the companion title, Nursing Theorists and Their Work, to apply what they have learned to actual nursing practice through various patient scenarios.
-
- Updated nursing application examples feature realistic scenarios that promote evidence-based practice. Scenarios have been updated using references to current literature and evidence-based clinical research

- Updated critical thinking exercises reflect the role of the nursing professional and advanced nursing practice, encouraging a higher level of thinking regarding the integration of theory and practice

- NEW! Nursing Care sections demonstrate how theories apply to certain situations and particular types of nurses
- NEW! Nursing theory timeline helps students place different nursing theories and theorists in history, illustrating the progression of the content
- Chapters written by contributors who utilize the work offer a unique approach to using theory in practice
- Real-life case history example included in application chapters promotes evidence-based practice and further demonstrates how a theory is used in practical situations
