Answer Section
MULTIPLE CHOICE
Paradigm refers to a model, theory, assumption, or a frame of reference. Generally, it means the way a person “sees” the world; this does not refer to a person’s visual sight, but a person’s mental perception.

Most nursing paradigms, or ways of seeing nursing practice, are based on learning through theories or clinical experiences. Culture is another paradigm that impacts nursing.

The use of LPNs in more management positions is a paradigm shift. A shifting paradigm is a break with older ways of thinking. This shift changes the world of those who experience it, and it is the source of attitudes and behaviors.

KEY: Content Area: Nursing Role | Integrated Processes: Caring | Client Need: Safe, Effective Care Environment | Cognitive Level: Applying
The LPN must have the tools to identify paradigm strategies. One tool is critical thinking, which allows the nurse to identify existing paradigms and to devise strategies needed to shift paradigms. Critical thinking also allows the nurse to be open to alternative ways of thinking and to be wary of “quick-fix” solutions.
