I have a deep sense of wanting to care for people. I never know there was a theory in nursing on the way I practiced being a nurse. I just took it as it was my calling for me. I have just started my first semester towered my Master’s Degree in Nursing and never know I was practicing different theories every day. I was awakened by this when I read different theory and practice. I can use this knowledge and incorporate into the way I care for my patients and to teach my students when I become a Nurse Educator after graduation.
As I work toward my Master’s Degree in Nursing I will adapt to mastering my patient-nurse relationship. I plan on using listing and communication with an understanding of my patients as theorist Imogene King. Understanding and adopting Imogen king’s theory of nursing: Theory of goal attainment. I can provide optimal care to all my patients.
King’s Theory of Goal Attainment defines nursing as ‘process of action, reaction, and interaction by which nurse and patient share information about their perception in the nursing situation.’ By being a good communicator and listener I will be able to develop an effective care plan to set goals that my patient can achieve. By evaluating the information and taking into account the appropriate actions that can be obtained by the patient to reach the set goals. Including the patient/client in the decision-making process will lead to goal attainment.
