Using a grand theorist from last week: Henderson. from the Discussion Board, propose a middle-range theory where you apply it to an actual population you work with and/ practice problem you experience. Be brief and simple. My Work Experience is: Nurse Care Manager for the geriatric population, I make home visits and create care plans to ensure these patients are safe in the community. Sample:
Your response should simply look like this:
1.Grand theory: Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Model
2.Patient/client population and problem: Post-partum women who have experienced physical trauma during the birthing process
3.My Middle-range theory: Self-Care Deficit in Post-partum Women
4.Applying it: focuses on assessing her self-care needs and functioning, the demands on her attention (baby care, available support), and developing nursing interventions to address the deficit in between.
