Importance of Theory in Nursing
For many students enrolled in NR501, this is an initial course for nursing theory.  So, let’s have a debate.  Is nursing theory important to the nursing profession?  If you believe that it is important, explain why it is useful.  If you do not believe that it is useful, explain why nursing theory is not necessary to the profession?  Be sure to provide an example that demonstrates your opinion and a scholarly reference (not using the required textbook or lesson) which supports your opinion.
