Clinical Application of Nightingale Theory

Abstract

The first influential thinker to describe nursing values and beliefs, Florence Nightingale based her writings on a mixture of influences (Hegges, 2013, p. 175). She gave seven assumptions in her theory, these philosophical assumptions are identified and serve as the basis for the model development. In the following paper I will analyze the scenario in light of the Nightangle theory, I would cover bed and bedding, ventilation, light and warming and personal cleanliness in my clinical scenario.
