The Key Concepts of my Philosophy

Modern science art comprises several fundamental concepts of nursing which include health promotion, stress, illness, skill acquisition, transcultural nursing etc. in order to provide preventive, primary, chronic and acute care for ill people, nurses have to work with physicians and other medical staff.

Health Promotion Model

            In cases where the disease is absent, this model focuses on health as a positive dynamic state. expansion of patient’s prosperity is the principle objective and this helps to portray multidimensional collaboration of human and nature while seeking a healthy life. This therefore means that my concept of continuous improvement is enhanced by health promotion model. My objective is to see that nursing care continue to improve with time as service delivery is being enhanced through the increase of efficiency.

Transcultural Nursing

            This field of study and work concentrates on similar social benefits which involves providing care basing on various societies. According to Watson et al ,2010 offering culturally congruent nursing care through the provision of practices such as culture-specific and general care is the main objective of transcultural nursing. In order to ensure that patients from different backgrounds, I incorporate transcultural nursing practices.

Skill Acquisition

            This is the art of gaining knowledge by practicing and executing various health programs. Skills acquisition helps me to get the relevant skills needed in my nursing profession and boost my experience in this field.

Role Theory

            Concepts collection and hypothetical formations which indicate how specific roles should be performed by nurses and on which circumstances should the behaviors be witnessed is what is referred to as role theory. Role theory is important in that I can identify and perform my duties in a professional manner.

Metaparadigms of Nursing

Human Beings

            The ability of human beings to make decisions concerning their health and therefore they need to be respected, understood and nurtured. There is delineation of various study fields i.e. biological, nursing, spiritual, nursing and human development since they make an impact on health and behavior. Within a specified environment, a patient is referred to as a client in an open system.  Individual, families and communities comprises of the recipient of nursing actions (Polit et al, 2013).

Health

            Comprises of a changing procedure which includes the blending of wellbeing and sickness. The wellbeing of a customer includes the physical, social and moral domains. Sickness refers to the lived experience of misfortune or can be termed as brokenness which can be cured through caring. People relationship with the environment defines the level of wellbeing.

Environment

            Environment is the physical part and scene of the social experience of human. There are no restrictions to geographical concept on social, national and worldwide but instead joins the qualities societal convictions and traditions (Paley et al, 2014). Dangers to prosperity, encounters of experienced wellbeing and mindful connections are provided to a patient by the earth. Individual soundness is subject to their relationship with the environment and this could be social, mental, physical, authentic and formative procedures.

Nursing

            Nursing refers to a health care professional system which focuses on the wellbeing of individuals. According to Astin A.W (2012), it is referred to as social insurance investigation which is guided by human flexibility temperature and duty. The nursing practice is brought about by science which is dependent on the learning advancement through research and sensible investigation.

Application of My Nursing Philosophy

            There are four key functions in nursing profession and they include person, health, nursing and environment. An individual is able to get the treatment he/she requires and this is aided by the four key concepts which offer the best nursing solution. these factors are correlated/related and this enables them to act as each other’s foundation for boosting nursing practice performance. In general, the evaluation of people is done on the basis of individual’s position as well as their association with the family and social communities. Nursing also has a role of finding every individuals requirement in the society and how their future is predicted by these requirements. The environmental factor seeks to analyze the internal and external factors that may alter the behavior of an individual in the society (Määttä et al,2017).

            As a nurse one should always be based on unique values so that one can gain effective results through the increase of quality services. Practice also provides a practitioner with a different standalone situation in the society.  The practitioner is also in apposition to earn more respect by utilizing the unique solutions. A practitioner can adopt solutions such as providing patients centered care, working in disciplinary teams, application of quality improvement and utilizing quality informatics. Also, as a nurse one should always be focused on the real cause affecting individual’s health. This is the best way of dealing with patients instead of pushing them to hospitalization directly.

            It is also important for thee practitioner/nurse to work as a team rather than working alone. Team spirits boosts performance by enabling all the measure facilities. It is pretty much obvious that emergence of success is challenging if the practitioner lacks proper team spirit. The practitioner should rely on evidence rather than considering general terms since an evidence based practice method provides more opportunities as a result of more success. It is the duty of a practitioner to make sure that quality work is maintained so that he/she can gain more appraisals from the society and the people in it.

My Philosophy’s Strengths and Limitations

            Nursing is one of the greatest profession and as a nurse, there are several strengths and weakness that may make the nursing career either interesting or difficult. As a successful nurse, I need to make sure that I develop good communication and people skills. This is necessary because there is so much interaction needed with different patients and so this would help you communicate well with them and as well as know what they are trying to communicate to you.      Good communication skills will enable you develop good relationship with the fellow co-workers and your superiors and this will help in conflict handling. Empathy and compassion for others is also a strength that keeps me going. As a nurse one should know how to handle patients with various emotions which may include fear, anxiety, depression anger and resentment. As a nurse you should show them that you care and that you understand what they are going through.

Reliability and flexibility are also necessary in order to succeed in the nursing career as patients are in need of a specialized care each and every day. The patients and the supervisor will always count on you each and every time you are on duty. Honesty and trustworthy is also very valuable in nursing profession. For instance, you should report to your superior every time you make a mistake or every time someone else makes a mistake. A nurse should also be a time manager so that work load can be done on time each and every day. There are also limitations to these philosophies and they may include expensive nursing homes, difficulty in dealing with patients sometimes, long working hours and spending less time with family.
