Students will submit a paper not to exceed three pages, excluding title page and reference list. The paper is to be formatted as per APA (7th ed.) guidelines. Students must include a minimum of 3 peer reviewed nursing journal articles in their submission.
The paper will include:
A definition of your personal philosophy of nursing based on:
o Identification and examination of your personal values, beliefs, and assumptions about nursing.
o A personal definition of the nursing metaparadigm concepts, based on your personal philosophy of nursing, and how these conceptualizations inform the way in which you understand and undertake your nursing practice.
o Identification of nursing practice example(s), to demonstrate the development of your personal philosophy of nursing.
Feel free to include an image depicting your personal philosophy in nursing (this is optional!) For those of you who are more visual and/or artistic in nature this may help you describe your own philosophy of nursing.
