ROGER’S NURSING THEORY
Nursing is Irreducible
nature of
both a
individuals is
science & different from
an art sum of the
parts
Roger’s
Nursing
Theory
Purpose of
Nurse: to Integralness
promote of people &
health & environment:
the identity
well being Nurses concerned of nursing as
with people & world a science
& live in close
contact with
people,
environment
Evolution of Abstract System
Development was strongly
influenced by early
grounding of arts,
background of science &
her interest in space
Originated as synthesis of
facts & ideas from multiple
sources of knowledge
Uniqueness is in central
phenomenon: people &
environment
Environmental field:
Defined as “an irreducible, pan-
dimensional energy field identified by pattern
& integral with the human field. Each
Environmental Field is specific to its given
Human Field. Both change continuously,
creatively & integrally”.
UNIVERSE OF OPEN
SYSTEM
Describes the open nature of the fields, which
allows for an interchange of energy & matter
between the fields
Is a “continuous process” without mention of
energy or matter.
PATTERN
Is the “distinguishing
characteristic of the
energy field perceived
as a single wave, which
gives identity to field”.
Human behavior can be
regarded as ‘manifestation of changing pattern’.
May be regarded as an indication of pain, illness or
disease.
PANDIMENTIONALITY
Field patterning
Nurses focus on people
manifestations are
& manifestations due to
observable
human/environmental
events.

understanding of openness, pattern,

Nursing
Meta Paradigms (contd.)
PERSON
Defined Environment as
“An irreducible, pan dimensional energy field
identified by pattern & manifesting the
characteristic different from those of the parts.
Each environment field is specific to its given
human field. Both change continuously and
creatively.”
ENVIRONMENT
According to Phillps,
“Health is participation in the life process by
choosing & executing behaviors that lead to the
optimum fulfillment of a person’s potentials” &
“Health is a rhythmic patterning of energy that is
mutually enhancing & expresses full life
potentials”.
NURSING
HELICY
Focus on
precognition,
clairvoyance,
telepathy &
therapeutic touch
Noseparation
between human
& environmental fields
ROGER’S CONCEPTS OF
NURSING
Nursing is a learned
profession: Science, Art
& Space
Study of unitary human &
environmental energy field
