Nursing research is one of the most important components in answering a clinical question through an investigation process. The research or investigation process involves a series of steps that are geared towards identifying suitable evidence that can be utilized in answering the research question. This process requires narrowing down the research topic, which helps in obtaining information that is applied to develop knowledge, which generates wisdom if applied in meaningful ways. In this case, the research process entails the use of a data, information, knowledge and wisdom continuum. This paper… Continue Reading...

The middle range theory that will be applied on nursing research for this project is the Core, Care and Cure Theory, which was developed by Lydia Eloise Hall.

The risk is using a theory which is overly theoretical in its approach for a data-driven study. Similarly, even though qualitative research is more open-ended, it can still be useful to use a theory or an operational definition of caring, self-care, or another nursing concept to focus the responses of participants to a greater degree.

Community, Jones should be made aware of emerging literature and the corpus of nursing research substantiating the efficacy of the proposed changes.
