I was reading something the other day and came across a mention of nursing theory. What exactly is this, and where can I find out more about it? I suppose there must be some sort of theories behind why nurses do what they do in different situations, but I would think that they would have medical proof rather than just theories, so I am not really sure quite how this all works. I would be interested in finding out more about it though, so I am probably going to end up doing a web search and seeing what sort of information I can find out.
