Section Requirements

Please note: write in the first person (I, me, my) in this section.

  1. Provide your definitions of the four domains: Nursing, Environment, Health, and Person.
    • Treat this as a conversation with your nurse theorist. Where do you agree with their definitions? Where do you disagree?
    • Throughout your clinical rotations, you have gained expertise as a nursing student and soon-to-be-RN. Has your expertise led you to agree or disagree with your nurse theorist? What in your experience has led you to do so?
  2. Next, state your nursing philosophy and show how the domains factor in.
    • Consider using this template while crafting your nursing philosophy: "Because I believe that [definition of person] and [definition/role of environment], my philosophy as a nurse is to [the role/definition of nurse] in order to [concept/definition of health]."
