Does anyone know a good online resource for nursing theorists? I have to write a paper on something and incorporate at least one theorist into it, but I don't even know where to start for theory. There's a tiny table of very non-informational summaries of a few theorists in our textbook, none of which match what I was looking for. It also refers us to a website for more information which no longer exists. So, I'm really confused as where to begin looking for theories. I turned in what I had done on my paper (completely theory free) and I was told to look for theories regarding adult education or educating the adult.. something like that, it was the end of a long & tiring day and I really don't remember much of the conversation. I was originally thinking something along the lines of safe environment of care.My paper is on horizontal violence and how it creates an environment where nurses may be providing inadequate care & how to stop horizontal violence by educating staff. Through all of this, I need to work at least one theory, I'm quite lost, I've spent all day looking but I don't even know where to begin so I haven't found a thing I can use. Please Help.Thanks,Nancy
