Present a personal nursing philosophy. While Fawcett was not a nursing theorist, she is a nursing philosopher
and her Metaparadigm of Nursing approaches philosophy over theory.
Once you have discussed your philosophy, identify a theoretical framework (not the middle-range theories but
the underlying assumptions in that framework) that fits your philosophy. Compare and contrast your philosophy
and the chosen framework. Describe a possible situation in which the framework may conflict or not fit your
philosophy.
While it is an important skill to be able to match a theory with a situation, it is also critical to understand when a
theory or framework does not fit a situation.
