Task:

Theories are derived from conceptual models and are comprised of concepts and propositions. The only concepts that are common to all nursing
theories, in some shape or form, are patient, nurse, health, and
environment. These are sometimes referred to as the basic metaparadigms
of the nursing domain. Identify two additional concepts that are
relevant to your personal practice of nursing and explain how they
relate to your practice and why they are important to your practice
