Be sure to specifically identify by name your facility’s professional practice model or provide a framework that would represent the philosophy of nursing within your facility, such as Watson’s Caring model.Use 4–6 nursing scholarly sources to support your definitions.Use the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th ed.) to cite in text and your reference list.Your Assignment must be 4–6 pages, and should include a title page and reference page (in addition to the 4–6 pages for the Assignment).In this unit, you will examine Florence Nightingale, Jean Watson’s Caring Model, Patricia Benner’s From Novice to Expert, and Katie Eriksson. You will also look at a few of the Grand Nursing Theorists, such as Dorothea Orem, Imogene King, and Dorothy Johnson.
