Many hospitals are struggling with the implementation of a theory-based practice. Governing organizations in nursing (CNA and provincial bodies) have mandated theory as the guide for the future direction of our profession. This implementation process is a new and somewhat tenuous undertaking. There are pitfalls to be recognized, reckoned with and surmounted. There are numerous approaches to adoption of a theoretical framework. A large Metropolitan Toronto hospital forged ahead, perhaps a little eagerly, with the implementation of a specific conceptual framework (I. King, 1981). In retrospect, some time spent in teaching the foundations of theory and a more generalized approach to its value, may have helped nurses to accept and assimilate the worth of theory-based practice. An evaluation of how the implementation process was progressing brought about this observation and article.
许多医院在实施基于理论的实践方面面临困难。护理领域的管理组织（加拿大护士协会和省级机构）已将理论规定为我们职业未来发展方向的指南。这个实施过程是一项新的、且有点棘手的任务。有一些陷阱需要识别、应对和克服。采用理论框架有多种方法。多伦多一个大型都市医院或许有点急于推进一个特定概念框架（I. 金，1981年）的实施。回想起来，花些时间讲授理论基础以及对其价值采用更普遍的方法，可能有助于护士接受并吸收基于理论的实践的价值。对实施过程进展情况的评估促成了这一观察结果和本文。
