Help,Thesis paper..Christian Worldview of Nursing

Published

Hi, I have a 5 page thesis paper due in about 2 weeks on the Christian Worldview of Nursing. I have to have 3 resources, one I have already is Called to Care (A Christian Worldview of Nursing) but I am stuck on where I can find the other two. The paper also has to have a positive thing about nursing and a negative thing. Our professor says it should focus on the philosophy of nursing and how a christian worldview affects nursing. Can someone please help me...I am really stuck. I have one paragraph written. Any feedback is welcome and I'm sure it will help me tremendously!!!!Thanks:roll

I've just moved this to the Nursing Student Assistance forum, where you will probably receive more help than you might have in the General Nursing Discussion.

Good luck to you on your thesis!

Specializes in Critical Care.

wikipedia Florence Nightingale and look at some of her influences. They were highly religious.

One of them, can't remember which, has a society in Canada dedicated to her. I'm sure they have a wealth of resources.

Modern nursing/medicine has its roots in religion.

There should be a ton of references ala nursing history.

Understanding the Times by David Noebel, published by the Association of Christian Schools International is full of worldview teachings in ten areas of life: Theology, philosophy, ethics, biology, psychology, sociology, law, politics, economics, history.These ten areas are looked at through the lens of secular humanism, marxist-leninism, cosmic humanism and Biblical Christianity. There are many concepts you can glean and then adapt for your paper. I know; I did this exact same paper for my BSNDC course at a Christian College.

Good luck and PM me if you need more help.
