Theoretical of Nursing

The document outlines the evolution of nursing theory from Florence Nightingale in the 1850s to the present day. It discusses major developments like the establishment of the first nursing school at Columbia in the 1950s and the emergence of various nursing theories in the 1970s. The eras of nursing are identified as: the Curriculum Era from 1900-1940 focusing on standardized education; the Research Era from 1950-1970 with more nurse educators pursuing research; and the Theory Era from 1980-1990 which stimulated significant growth in nursing theory development. The goal of the current Theory Utilization Era is for nursing frameworks to guide research, practice, education and administration and produce knowledge to improve quality of care.
