These theories help nursing student and nurses to develop better nursing practices, knowledges and to take care of their patients properly in a better way.There are various common nursing theories which is very important for any nursing undergraduates or students practicing nursing professionally. These are as follows:The importance of having nursing theories in practicing students as it helps them to understand in providing better patient care, better understanding or communication between the patient’s and their relatives and also to enhance the professional status of nurses[ CITATION Ali15 \l 1033 ]It is important to learn as it provides guidelines or direction in practicing nursing by explicitly describing theories. It also provides foundations to nursing students to know more about nursing students to know more about nursing and in which direction it shoulddevelop in future.The main objective of nursing is to care which is abstract i.e. cannot be measured. Therefore, it is important to have theories to explain what the actual role of nurses.The strategies I would use to teach nursing theories to students are as follows:The active participation of both students and teachers through different classroom activities like debate, presentations, group discussions, etc. can be one of the effective to learn the theories[ CITATION Mic13 \l 1033 ].The introduction of simulation education is vital as enacting real-world case help student to improve their knowledge, clinical competence and boost their confident handling critical cases.Problem or case-based learning can also be one of the effective strategy in which student gets opportunity to understand the actual clinical problems or cases and how they can apply themselves in those situations.
