Making nursing models relevant for the practising nurse.

In this article the authors examine the background to the development of the nursing process and nursing models. The latter, it is argued, provide the theoretical framework for nursing actions. The descriptive study described here by the authors, took place at Michigan State University. The aim was to determine how useful nurses perceived nursing theory to their practice--in a setting where nursing theory had been taught for ten years. Nursing models were found to be useful to practising nurses in the clinical setting.

The work of Florence Nightingale has dominated not only the development of British nursing, but also affected nursing across the globe. She was particularly influential upon nursing in the United States of America. In this paper, the transfer of the Nightingale approach to the United States is explained. The early developments of nursing in North America, particularly at the time of the Civil War, and in public health nursing are applied.
