Deriving interventions from the NDB model. Using natural environment and implicit memory theories.
By drawing on theoretical propositions developed outside nursing, and by modifying and synthesizing these with nursing experiential data, useful statements for practice may be developed for further examination. Because practice theory for the care of patients with dementia is not well-developed or well-examined yet, the process described here to develop meaningful interventions for practice should be further explored and evaluated.
