F rameworks for guiding nursing practice range from the nursing process to scientific theory. The frameworks offer different approaches to patients and their health, and guide nurses toward different goals. In a practice situation such as the operating room, nurses have limited time to be with patients. Brief nurse-patient encounters present a challenge for nurses in selecting a theoretical framework from which they can provide a comfortable experience for both the patient and themselves. This article explores the traditional perioperative nursing approach to patients and offers an alternative that is grounded in the nursing theory of Rosemarie Rizzo Parse, RN, PhD-man-livinghealth. l
