   Just a thought....do you have to compare your own philosophy to the school's? We had to compare/contrast our own philosophy to Orem and then throw in a paragraph about how philosophy affects the care a nurse gives....what specifically does your paper have to be about?

   thanks loco & dayonite for replying.
   we don't have to compare it to the school's philosophy or anyone else as we 1- don't have a specific philosophy right now and 2-we did theory in a different class.
   
   I do appreciate the advice but was mostly venting. I think I may have found a direction for this paper.
