The correct applications of theoretical models have known to create positive ripples in a health care plan. “A caring environment is one that offers the development of potential while allowing the person to choose the best action for himself or herself at a given point of time, the appropriate establishment of a caring environment will promote health, individual, and family growth,” (Wastson, 2012).
