WK 1 ASSIGN

 YOUR PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY OF NURSING PRACTICE (NO SUBMISSION DUE)

Florence Nightingale’s philosophy and teachings emphasize that the nurse must use her brain, heart and hands to create healing environments to care for the patient’s body, mind and spirit. Nursing, since the time of Nightingale, has been building the holistic paradigm, in all schools of thought, with a view to a humanistic approach to the human being in their indivisible relationship with the environment. (Riegel et al., 2021, p.1)

The nursing paradigm includes four domains: person, environment, health, and nursing. These domains enable nurses to provide holistic and patient-centered care. When you combine them with your own attitudes, beliefs, and values, you can begin generating a unique and personal philosophy of nursing.

For this first Assignment of the course—and building on this week’s Discussion—you will formulate your personal philosophy of nursing practice. Keep in mind that you will 
not submit your Assignment until 
Day 7 of Week 3. Begin now and continue developing your thoughts and ideas, as you engage with Weeks 2 and 3, which focus on nursing theory.

Note: As you work your way through this course, the image above to the upper-right will appear with each Assignment to remind you that the effort you put in now will benefit you in the future, as you put your knowledge and skills into action as a DNP-prepared nurse.
