Answer & Explanation:I need help completing my mid-range theory paper for my nursing theory class. I already started the paper and turned in a first draft to the instructor. He provided feedback for my specific paper as well as general guidelines for the entire class after reading the drafts. I will like to keep as much of the original contents as possible. I mainly need help completing the following sections of the paper that I didn’t complete when I turned in the draft;- Recommendations for Use in Practice – Recommendations for Use in Research – Conclusion. Then I want you to edit the paper to meet the teacher’s general guidelines provided in APA format. Please see the attachments for copies of my draft with the instructors feedback and guidelines. I have also included the rubric. This is the main book used for the paper. Peterson, S. J., & Bredow, T. S. (2013). Middle range theories: Application to nursing research. (3rd Ed.). Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins. ISBN/ISSN: 978-1-60831-800-1General Comments and Guidelines.docx Draft with intructor’s feedback.docx Rubric.docx

Student’s Name:
Mid‐Range Theory
The student will select a mid‐range theory applicable to his or her nursing practice as the focus of this assignment. The

The paper should include:
