Discussion Question:

Henderson believed nurses have the responsibility to assess the needs of the individual patient, help individuals meet their health needs, and provide an environment in which the individual can perform activities unaided. What is an opportunity in your nursing practice that would benefit from application of Henderson’s theory?  How does this align with the ANA’s definition of nursing? Provide at least one evidenced-based research article to support this recommendation.

Your initial posting should be at least 400 words in length and utilize at least one scholarly source other than the textbook.

Assignment:

Peplau and Orem

Assignment Description:

Create a PowerPoint presentation that addresses each of the following points/questions. Be sure to completely answer all the questions for each bullet point. Use clear headings that allow your professor to know which bullet you are addressing on the slides in your presentation. Support your content with at least three (3) outside sources and the textbook using APA citations throughout your presentation. Make sure to cite the sources using the APA writing style for the presentation. Include a slide for your references at the end. Follow best practices for PowerPoint presentations related to text size, color, images, effects, wordiness, and multimedia enhancements. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment.

This week you will create a Power Point to discuss the following:

Part one: Peplau was the first nursing theorist to identify the nurse–patient relationship as being central to all nursing care. Peplau valued knowledge, believing that the nurse must possess extensive knowledge about the potential problems that emerge during a nurse–patient interaction. Peplau’s theoretical work on the nurse–patient relationship continues to be essential to nursing practice.

Create a PowerPoint presentation describing the phases of the Nurse-Patient relationship as defined by Peplau.  Align your presentation with a current nursing practice example. Resource must be 5 years or newer. 

• Example: anxiety prior to surgery, diabetes management, newborn bath,

Part two: Provide a discussion of Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Theory.  What are the three related parts? Identify a current nursing practice example where Orem’s theory would be relevant. Use at least one evidenced-based research article to support your practice example. Resource must be 5 years or newer. 

• Examples for the application of the theory – Teachback, Interventional patient hygiene, preop teaching and instructions, higher education, job training, case management, communication, chronic illness, urinary incontinence, diabetic needing help with carb count, independently order meals, self feed, ADL’s

Power Point should include at least 3 outside references and the textbook. It should include title and reference slides and be 14-20 slides. Make sure to include pictures, graphs, or media throughout the PPT as this is part of the rubric and worth 30 points.
