Nursing Theorist Group Presentations

1. Nursing Theorist Group Presentations By: Tara Braun, Nathan Buchinger, Leah Mueller, Elisabeth Vander Zwaagas Ida J.rlando

2. Ida J. Orlando’s Nursing Process Theory Theory of the Deliberative Nursing Process “How nurses process their observations of patient behavior and also about how they react to patients on the basis of inferences from patients’ behavior, including what they say” (Chitty & Black, 2011, p. 315).

3. What is Nursing Theory? “Refers to a group of related concepts, definitions, and statements that describe a certain view of nursing phenomena from which to describe, explain, or predict outcomes” (Chitty & Black, 2011, p. 303)

4. What is a Nursing Conceptual Model? • “Provide comprehensive, holistic, perspectives of nursing by describing the relationships of specific concepts” (Chitty & Black, 2011, p. 310) • Are more formalized than a philosophy but more abstract than a theory (Chitty & Black, 2011, p.310)

10. Nursing Process Theory (Ida Jean Orlando)

11. Three basic aspects of Orlando’s Nursing Theory • Patient Behavior - verbal and nonverbal communication relating to the nurse what the patient immediately needs • The Nurse’s Reaction– An active thought process by the nurse in which he/she observes the behavior, interprets them, and formulates a plan to meet the patient’s needs. The nurse also communicates with the patient to validate whether the patient’s behavior was correctly perceived by the nurse before deciding on an appropriate intervention. • The Nurse’s Activity – An interactive process with the patient whereby the nurse performs actions for and with the patient to meet the patient’s observed needs. (Sheldon & Ellington, 2008)

12. How did Ida J. Orlando develop her theory– In her own words. Length 1:44 (Ida Jean Orlando)

13. (Tyra, 2008)

14. Deliberate action, as opposed to automatic action, involves critical thinking as well as constant interaction with the patient. Orlando heavily emphasizes a strong and dynamic nurse-patient relationship (Chitty & Black, 2011)

15. Relationship Between Orlando’s Theory and the 4 Global Concepts

16. Human Beings Patients are human beings who cannot meet their specific, immediate health needs without intervention by the nurse (Alligood & Tomey, 2006). Patients are interactive, dynamic, and constantly make inferences about their needs. Nurses are to observe inferences made by them in order to provide deliberate nursing care that will “relieve distress or discomfort” (Chitty & Black, 2011, p. 315). Patient’s are relational beings who, through both verbal and nonverbal communications, work with the nurse to meet their immediate needs (Chitty & Black, 2011)

17. Environment Because inferences are taken from the patient as to what the nurse can do immediately to meet his/her needs, the nurse also takes into account how the environment may need to be adjusted to help meet patient outcomes. Since patients exist within the environment they are currently in, and “all patient behavior is meaningful and may reflect distress,” the nurse must actively take action based on his/her observations and meet the patient’s needs (Schmieding, 1993). This may include adjusting the patient environment. “This distress is related to the inability to meet one's own needs because of injury or disease, the inability to recognize or accurately communicate one's own needs, or the reaction to the confusing, new, painful, or exhausting care environment” (emphasis added, Orlando, 1987, as paraphrased by Potter & Bockenhauer, 2000, para. 6).

18. Health • Through the deliberative nursing process, a patient’s immediate health needs are met. A patient will then experience feelings of adequacy and wholeness. Meeting patient outcomes is the goal of Orlando’s process theory in general Nursing (Alligood & Tomey, 2006) • Nurses work autonomously, use critical thinking, establish a working patient relationship, and effectively communicate with patients determine proper interventions. • Nurses exist to “meet patients’ immediate needs and to improve their situation” (Chitty & Black, 2011, p. 315).

19. Evaluation of Global Concepts • Orlando’s theory does address these concepts as shown on the previous slides. However, the primary foci of her theory is on the patient and nursing. Although environment is included, it is assumed that the nurse will make changes if that is what is required to meet patients’ needs. Health is also addressed, though less emphasized, and it is assumed that meeting immediate needs will contribute to patients’ long-term health achievement.

20. How can this model be used? • Concrete theory based on needs of the patient • Specific to nurse patient relationship • Used in OR or OB setting • Nurse must monitor patient needs during and after surgery • Nurse must be able to adapt care based on patient needs • Postoperatively the patient will have different needs than preoperatively • The laboring patient will have different needs than during delivery and then postpartum (Citation?)

23. Examples of other fields where Orlando’s theory may be useful…

24. Case Study A patient just recovering from surgery is complaining of pain. He has already had the maximum dose of his pain medications and is continually using his call light to make demands on the nursing staff. He has made several complaints that his pain is not being taken care of and other patients are receiving better care. How can you deal with this patient using Orlando’s theory? What are some questions you should ask this patient?

25. Case Study Answers • How can you deal with this patient using Orlando’s theory? • Ask the patient what his concerns are and listen to both verbal and nonverbal answers. • Attempt to discuss with the patient different methods of pain relief. • Discuss with the patient why he feels others are receiving better care. • Assess the patient’s needs and take care of the needs promptly • What are some questions you should ask this patient? • What is your pain level? Where is your pain? • What are we doing for the other patients differently than we are doing for you? • What are your main concerns about your health?
