Middle range nursing theories (Case study 2)
Middle range nursing theories provides a theoretical framework for the nurses which
connects some of the grand nursing theories with nursing practice. The middle range nursing
theory that should use in this assignment is Pender’s health promotion model (Smith & Liehr,
