Answer

Nursing theory is an essential aspect of the nursing profession. It comprises a set of concepts and principles that form the scientific foundation of nursing (Iskandarani et al., 2012). These theories provide nurses with a framework to understand and apply their knowledge and skills in providing quality patient care. Nursing theory helps nurses to identify and address patient needs, promote health and wellness, and improve the overall quality of care. NR501NP Week 1 Discussion
