  • Title: Demonstrating theory in practice: examples of the McGill model of nursing.
    Author: Gaudine AP.
    Journal: J Contin Educ Nurs; 2001; 32(2):77-85. PubMed ID: 11868745.
    Abstract:
    An important test for a model of nursing is its usefulness in practice. One-hundred and forty-seven nurses in one hospital attended a 2-day workshop on the McGill Model of Nursing. An evaluation of this workshop showed the usefulness of the McGill model. Self-efficacy for performing the model increased, as did behaviors and performance related to nursing by this model. Self-reports and supervisor reports measured these increases 6 months after the workshop. Further, the implementation of the model led to staff nurses initiating bottom-up changes in the nursing department. Boundary conditions or factors outside of the workshop content that enhanced the adoptation of the model are described.
