My first reaction would be that a nursing theory would be accepted once it has been seen to work where it matters. Nurses tend to be very practical people and something really helpful and effective would be welcomed. I trained in 1978 and the advent of highly technical machinery has changed a lot of nursing practice.
This new technology may give rise to crises of conscience. Ever tinier prem babies can be resuscitated and helped to survive in special care units, but is intervention always wise? Is it ethical and moral to put someone on the Liverpool Pathway?
Nurses are real people, and are at the sharp end of life and death. That is where nursing theory needs to be readily translatable to real life with all of its complex issues.
I would be very interested to read other nurses thoughts on this, and I hope nobody will take this answer as definitive.
