Introduction to Theory and Dr. Margaret A. Newman’s Theory
Guests: Drs. Marie Gill, Mona Wicks & Carolyn Graff
In this episode, I have the honor of talking with three distinguished guests from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Nursing. Drs. Marie Gill, Mona Wicks & Carolyn Graff will be discussing nursing theory in general and as nursing theory relates to Dr. Margaret Newman, a nursing theorist, for whom the UTHSC CON has established a Center for Nursing Theory that is opening in May 2023.
My guests and I dialogue about nursing theory and how it relates to research and practice. We also discuss Dr. Margaret Newman’s theory, “Health as Expanding Consciousness”. You will hear about Dr. Newman’s journey to becoming a nurse and a nurse theorist. This episode will challenge you to think about how nursing theory applies to your own understanding of nursing and practice, nursing and teaching, and nursing and theory itself.
