Select the specific theoretical framework that you will use with your project. I am using Orem theory of self-care. Describe how the theory that you chose aligns with your capstone project. Include the following information:
My topic is “In patients with congestive heart failure, ages 60-85, how does a patient education class decrease hospitalization versus no class over a 1-year period?”
Describe the key features of the selected theoretical framework/model (Orem’s theory). What are its major components?
• Identify specific research approaches appropriate for use with the theoretical model or framework and how it fits with your intended project.
o Does the model lend itself to quantitative or qualitative methods or both?
o What kind of quantitative/qualitative methods would be most appropriate? (Focus groups, interviews, pre/post-tests, record review, survey, etc.)
• Describe how the theoretical framework might be used to evaluate the program/project and critique how well the model fits the program or project.
o What aspects of the model works well and what aspects do not?
o Why?
I have attached the sample paper which is on the same topic. Please follow it. Keep the turn it in less than 15%. If you have any question, please let me know. Thank you.
