Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: Nursing theories help nurses to think critically about nursing. This critical thinking about nursing can involve client needs, treatment approaches that improve outcomes, or processes the nurse can use in providing client care. While nursing theories can involve the nursing process, not all nursing theories involve the nursing process. Critical thinking is involved in nursing theories, but they are not intended to explain critical thinking. Nursing theories involve nursing, not medicine, which would be medical theories.

Answer to Question 2
