PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY OF NURSING
This is an excerpt from the paper...
My personal philosophy is formulated based on the theories of Dorothea Orem (See: Orem & Taylor, 2001) which revolve around a general and specific concept of care. Specifically, Orem offers a conceptual framework, which I accept at a personal level, of the major concepts central to all nursing philosophy, these being the concepts of person, environment, health, nursing and nursing education. Based on my readings of Orem and my personal experience in caring for others, I feel that with respect to the profession of nursing, a person is best defined as a human being who has the actual ability to care for self or the potential ability to care for self. My philosophy is based on the notion that, to varying extents, people can be helped to care for themselves when their self-care ability has been reduced or even eliminated. I see self-care as a learned behavior. However, and in some situations such as illness or injury, the provider of care must be a trained nurse who also has an obligation to help
