Overview:
-Theory: a systematically interrelated concept or hypotheses that seek to explain or
predict phenomena
-A theory can be based either explicitly or philosophically on a conceptual model (aka
conceptual framework)
-A conceptual model/framework is more practical! It provides direction for the nursing
process and explains relationships between a person - nurse - and environment -

An example of Nightingales work in current day can be found in Cook County, Illinois:
-PHN's looked a walkability in low income areas and saw that bad walkability led to bad
things like them not being able to go to the doctor. The nurses fought for environmental
change to help
-Nurses used geographic information system technology to create maps that indicated
the level of walkability in low-income neighborhoods such as availability of sidewalks
and accessibility to both grocery stores and health services - by understanding that
environment and health are linked - the nurses advocated for changes to those
neighborhoods identified as having poor walkability. Nightingales research influenced
the research and provided the basis for research that improved population health -
