| Abstract: | 1. Theory can provide practical guidelines for nursing interventions and research. 2. The Science of Unitary Human Beings, a grand theory, provides input into clarifying the Cognition-Sensitive Approach, a mid-range theory. 3. Cognition in the Alzheimer's disease process can be categorized hierarchically. 4. The Cognition-Sensitive Approach provides a theoretical base for holistic nursing interventions for people with Alzheimer's disease. |
