Discussion topic #1: I partly completed this one, please expand on this for me.
Link the personal theory you developed with the Metaparadigm of Nursing.
Each of the elements of the Metaparadigm should be represented in your theory. Revise your theory if necessary to include each of the components of the Metaparadigm.
The Metaparadigm of nursing is a holistic concept of nursing that encompasses bio-psycho-social aspects of caring for a patient.
The concept includes the person, environment, health and also nursing.
These four areas will be applied to he theory of discharge planning.
The person aspect of the a theory points out the patient needs to be willing to be a part of and an owner of the process. Discharge planning theory sets out to
Environmental factors (please explain more of this). As a case manager, I liaison with the issues in the patient’s environment.
This has to deal with their current physical and social environments. My job is to intervene with the environment to make it a safe one that the patient would have a foreseeable positive post discharge outcome.The nurse is physically with the patient, but needs to be at “one” with him/her. The nursing-patient relationship is important as the patient learns to trust and then becomes a vested partner in order for the theory of discharge planning to be successful. One of the nursing roles would be that of mine as the case manager. The bedside nurse and any other nurses “caring” for the patient during the hospital stay must take into play all of the previous concepts of the meta paradigm of each individual patient.
