A phenomenon is the term used to describe a perception or responses to an event. Examples of phenomena in nursing include caring and responses to stress. Assumptions are the ideas that we take for granted. They explain the nature of the concepts in the theory, giving it structure.
Choose a middle-range theory or grand theory that, in your opinion, can be applied to research.
What is the phenomenon of concern in this theory?
What are the assumptions underpinning this theory?

An underlying assumption based on the identified grand theory is that ordinary individuals in contemporary society want to control their lives without needing much assistance (Jaftoran et al., 2021). For instance, in the model, appropriate care for the patients is developed using a series made up of three main activities. Namely, diagnostic, regulatory, and prescriptive. in diagnostic operations, the caregiver initiates the procedure that starts with establishing a firm friendship. The process includes contracting with the service user to explore potential and current self-care demands. Besides, factors like gender and age are highly considered during the diagnostic stage. The next operation is prescriptive. Here more research on the patient is administered.
