Conceptual Frameworks, Models, and Theories in Advanced Practice Nursing

S1
Good afternoon everyone! This is _____, and I am going to deliver a presentation on
conceptual frameworks, models, and theories that guide advance practice nursing.
S2
We know that Advanced practice nurses (APN) are entitled with the responsibility of
delivering novel ways of distributing cost-effective care services and enhancing the access of
patients and families to qualified nursing practitioners. We should also note that these nurses
are responsible for delivering health care to the vulnerable and under-served populations.
APNs are expected to remain grounded in theory and investigation that guides them in their
clinical practice. While we work in collegial capabilities with the physicians, they need to be
equipped to identify and provide care to patients suffering from chronic and acute illnesses,
in addition prescribing medications. These errands need nursing professionals to adopt a
compassionate and caring approach.
S3
Our second slide focuses on the conceptual framework for nursing. We have identified the
need to utilise a harmonized nursing conceptual framework with the aim of ensuring that all
APNs have a systematic understanding of what their profession is and what advanced nursing
care entails. Notwithstanding the level of educational attainment, selection of a conceptual
framework based on ‘person’ will allow APNs to have adequate for determining the skills
and knowledge that are expected of them. Kindly note that the conceptual framework of
person and/or human being focuses on defining a singular individual based on specific
attributes that define the person with respect to the nursing scenario and focuses on a
thorough monitoring of the disease that is being treated. In the following slide, I will further

elaborate on the parameters and aspects that are encompassed within this conceptual
framework.
S4
In this slide, I will discuss about the essential prerequisites for caregiving process, in
accordance to the conceptual framework that I illustrated in the previous slide. I would like to
mention that this component of conceptual framework will be addressed by demonstrating
respect and accountability and commitment towards the interventions that are being
implemented on the patient. Display of adequate clinical knowledge must be accompanied
with strategies of humanization that will help in providing care to the patient by taking into
account his preferences and demands. We also need to align our care giving process with the
values of the patients, which in turn can be achieved by displaying necessary interpersonal,
cognitive, and psychomotor skills that considers all clients as unique entities. The personal
beliefs, faith and attirbutes of the patients will be considered, followed by share and
exchanging necessary information with the patient and his family members.
S5
I would like to discuss a model that forms the basis of nursing practice. My clinical expertise
and knowledge helped me learn that the Health promotion model is based on snowballing the
level of wellbeing among all patients. The model defines the multidimensional character of
individuals as they work together within their milieu for pursuing health. It focuses on three
major areas namely, individual physiognomies and involvements, behaviour-related affect
and cognitions, and social outcomes. We should also note that the model underlines that each
individual has unique features that may create an impact on their actions. The fixed variables
for behaviour-detailed information and affect have significant motivational implication. The
variables can also be adapted through implementation of proper nursing actions. Hence,
