Discussion   Prompt

In the lecture for the week, a theory was   identified. “Knowledge as a component of the sociocultural orientation basic   conditioning factor enhances prevention of hazards” is a theory from a major   nursing framework.  Identify the framework and provide an example of how   other applications of this theory may occur in nursing practice. For example,   you may say that education may enhance the reduction of free throw rugs in an   elderly persons home which will prevent falls.  Tie the concepts   together by clearly defining them and how they could be measured.
