Nursing Science is an identifiable discrete body of knowledge comprising paradigms, frameworks and theories. The integration of nursing theories into practice demonstrates an evolutionary pathway for introducing a paradigm shift in the essence of the science of nursing. Patient safety and quality initiatives as well as magnet status continue to mandate that nurses practice from a framework of professionalism. A sound evidence based practice advances the overall nursing administration too. Nurse leaders guided by a conceptualized practice have an opportunity to transform health care.<\/p>\n

Nursing Theories<\/h2>\n

Theories have been developed in nursing to explain the phenomenon importance to clinical practice.<\/p>\n

For example, we have a theory of health promotion behavior (Pender & Pender, 1996<\/em> ) and a theory of mother infant attachment (Walker, 1992<\/em> ). Although we use these theories to guide our practice, in many cases we have not tested them to determine whether or not the nursing actions proposed actually have the effects claimed. If nursing is truly to be a professional practice, an environment supporting professional practice must be created. Given the anticipated shortage as well as the increased demand for nursing, ANA<\/a> (American Nurses Association<\/em> )<\/strong> notes work environment that supports professional practice to enhance positive staff and patient outcome.<\/p>\n

There are many conceptual models and the nursing theories that provides the basis for clinical practices, among them few are as follows – <\/p>\n
