I've never heard of a Canadian hospital having a specific nursing model they follow. The nursing school I attended which was a hospital-based program used the Hendeson model, but the hospital itself didn't seem to call what they do anything specific. Neither have the other four I've worked in since I graduated...
I have heard of hospitals down here in Southern Ontario making the move to following a specific nursing model, and some already have.
I know Ross Memorial in Lindsay definitely does, but i can't remember which one it was.
Im just a nursing student. Maybe a nurse that works in Southern Ontario would throw some light
I can honestly say that if we follow a "model" somebody forgot to tell us.We've just got that much to do, that we blunder through the day hoping to give the best patient care that we can and survive the shift without having to call security on the families.
yeah, that sounds about right.

Hi,
Please can anyone tell me what nursing models are used in Canada?
For example, a nursing model used in the hospital i work in in the Uk uses the Roper, Logan and Tierney model.
Thank You
