title: Using models in learning disability nursing.
abstract: Nursing models and theory can be of particular benefit during periods of significant social and professional change. The use of nursing models in learning disability nursing needs to be shown to have positive outcomes in practice. A literature search found little proof of the efficacy of nursing models in learning disability nursing. More nursing research is essential in this area of practice.
