 Models of Practice

 What is a model?

A model demonstrates the researcher’s interpretation of how concepts are related to one another and are developed based on qualitative research. Models often are precursors to theory development.

Three of the most prominent nursing models categorized as focusing on goals and functions include Florence Nightingale’s environmental model of nursing, Dorothy Johnson’s behavioral system model, and Nola J. Pender’s health promotion model.

In the first row, in the first column, write the name of your chosen model. An example has been provided in the first rows to guide you. Please remove the examples when entering your information

Jeanne Blum, RN, is a nurse on a LDRP unit. Recently, the policy and 

procedures manual for Jeanne’s unit included the premature rupturing of membranes of a laboring patient 

as a practice acceptable for nurses to perform. Jeanne 

and some of her coworkers shared their concern over 

lunch about this new responsibility.They felt uncomfortable with the possibility of cord prolapse and 

other potential medical complications resulting from 

this practice. Jeanne gathered data from her state and 

many others states and noted that her hospital was 

not in compliance with her professional organization

practice standards. Jeanne shared this information with her coworkers. She volunteered to contact the 

state board of nursing on their behalf to request a 

declaratory statement on the nurse’s role in the initiation of premature rupturing of uterine membranes. 

Her state board’s clinical practice committee 

reviewed her request for a declaratory statement and 

gathered information from other states. A formal 

declaratory statement was drafted by the board and 

made it available on its Web site. A letter from the 

board was sent to Jeanne’s institution, informing it of 

the declaratory statement, which stated that the task 

nurses were requested to perform was beyond their 

scope of practice based on the Nurse Practice Act.

Leadership Styles and Nursing

 

This is a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment. 

The purpose of this assignment is to assess leadership styles, traits, and practices as a nursing professional, establish the importance of effective interprofessional communication as a leader in nursing, and to explore the role of servant leadership in nursing practice.

Read the study materials on leadership and complete the topic quiz activities to better understand your leadership qualities.

Upon completion, summarize and share with your group what you learned about your specific leadership qualities, so you can become familiar with how you are similar and different from your peers when it comes to being a leader.

As a group, review the study materials related to servant leadership. Using what you have learned about the tenets of servant leadership and traits and practices of successful leaders, create a 10-12 slide PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes. Add an additional slide for references at the end of your presentation.  

Include the following in your presentation:

  1. Each group member: Create a slide that summarizes your leadership style, traits, and practices.
  2. Compare the personal leadership styles of your group members, including commonalities between group members’ strengths and weaknesses.
  3. Explain why it is important for nursing professionals to be aware of their personal leadership style, traits, and practices.
  4. Discuss what leadership traits and styles are necessary to be an effective communicator. Explain the importance of leaders adapting communication approaches when working interprofessionally (across ancillary departments, vendors, community members).
  5. Discuss how nursing professionals can benefit from integrating the tenets of servant leadership to empower and influence others as they lead.
  6. Discuss how leaders who practice servant leadership and have a strong understanding of their personal leadership traits can successfully lead others and navigate the unique challenges that are part of nursing and health care. Provide two examples that illustrate your main ideas.

You are required to cite to a minimum of three sources to complete this assignment. Sources must be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria and relevant to nursing practice.
