The interpersonal focus of the model on this relationship is unique as it examines not only the client, but also the self-reflection of the nurse in the context of the ongoing relationship between the nurse and the client.
The model considers the environment to be the relationship and interaction between the nurse and the client.
As the focus of the model is on the nurse-client relationship and the level of trust and self reflection which is required, the client would be required to develop this relationship with every nurse they come in contact with.

 NursingCenter - Library - Journal Issue - Article
But there are many nurses, many in other health professions, and many in the public, who are not able to articulate the value of nursing, or to explain what is lost if nurses' tasks are simply delegated to trained workers.
We have the opportunity now, when many nurses are feeling real distress about their inability to practice nursing in ways that they value, to reach out and make a connection with the fundamental understandings that nurses have concerning how they prefer to practice.
Nurses want the time and the energy to pay attention to a person's needs, to assist the family in coping with illness and loss, to understand the realities of people's experience in order to tailor care to their needs, to address the whole person, and not just the disease.

 The Evolving Essence of the Science of Nursing, A Complexity Integration Nursing Theory
Student nurses script in life's drama is similar to the interpretation that student nurses as individual human beings live their life as the "platonic prisoners".
Nursing as an Art, The Postmodern Nursing Paradigm, A different Way of Working, A New way of Understanding, About Death and Dying and the Brave New World are chapters that help nurses to close the gap between qualitative and quantitative issues as we meet them in the nursing profession.
Therefore, the complexity integration of the two nursing theories demonstrates an evolutionary pathway for introducing a paradigm shift in the essence of the science of nursing necessary for the acceptance, implementation, and evaluation of the global concept of “Health for All”.

The nursing process was originally an adapted form of problem-solving and is classified as a deductive theory.

 Chapter 39. Nurse Staffing, Models of Care Delivery, and Interventions
Structuring nurse staffing (e.g., availability of nurses, organizational models of nursing care) and care interventions to meet "safe thresholds" could be considered a patient safety practice.
Because decisions about nurse staffing do not have a scientific basis and are instead based on economics and anecdotes, nurse executives and managers are frequently at odds with staff nurses; especially those represented by labor unions, over staffing.
Although the optimum range for acute care hospital nursing staffing is most likely within these ranges, none of the studies specifically identify the ratios or hours of care that produce the best outcomes for different groups of patients or different nursing units.
