    Author: Rogers M, Jones Paul L, Clarke J, Mackay C, Potter M, Ward W.
    Journal: Can J Nurs Adm; 1991 Jun; 4(2):21-6. PubMed ID: 2069964.
    Abstract:
    In recent years, considerable attention has been paid to the use of a nursing conceptual model for nursing practice. Although many of the theorists and early writers on the subject suggested that a nursing conceptual model could be used to guide nursing administration, there has been little attention given to this in the literature. This article describes the process that one hospital engaged in as they implemented the Roy Adaptation Model for nursing administration. The article discusses the use of the Roy Model in creating a nursing philosophy, mission statements, standards of practice, job descriptions, performance planning and appraisal system and a quality monitoring system. The authors conclude that the use of the Roy Model has contributed to the development of a highly integrated system of nursing administration and practice.
