While the focus of this course is nursing theory, frequently, we use a non-nursing or borrowed theory to help us manage or guide a situation or change. Think of a time when you were involved in a situation or a change that needed to occur. If you feel you have not applied a borrowed theory in your practice, can you think of a situation where applying a borrowed theory would be beneficial to your practice? Which non-nursing or borrowed theory do you feel was used or could be used to help guide this situation or change? Why was it important to use this theory for this situation? How did it help the situation or change occur?
