Martha Rodger’s theory clearly agrees with the ideals that I hold as a nursing professional that nursing should endeavor to promote health, prevention of diseases, rehabilitate ill people through incorporation of humane scientific ways. Nursing as a profession exists to serve people, being a profession that has a direct as well as overriding societal responsibility. Nursing as a profession seeks to integrate physiology as well as science fields in order to facilitate a patients healing process. For safe practice of nursing the individual should have a good background information and knowledge about nursing, and the patients need a well-informed nurse aware of the responsibilities and function that she is supposed to perform (Meleis, 1997). The theory states that, a human being is an irreducible four-dimensional thing that in indivisible (Meleis, 1997). The human being is identified by a particular pattern and manifests with particular characteristics that is summed to a whole being and hence cannot be predicted using parts. Human beings are made up of their own characteristics that cannot be seen by looking at, or describing or summarizing the parts. Nursing as a profession is as old as people existed. The element of nursing means taking care, it can be the sick or not. As per the assumption that nursing exists to serve people, it is true in that the sick need to be taken care of through administration of drugs, ensuring that the patient has observed good hygienic standards and check the progress of the patient. Without the nurse many patients might die from small complication that can be easily avoided by employing good care skills. For example, a diabetic patient with a wound and in a coma is not in a position to take a shower or even take care of the wound. He therefore needs somebody to take care of the wounds failure to which he might develop infection that will eventually lead to sepsis with an eventuality of death. Therefore, a nurse will play an essential role in the management of patients. At the same time nursing as a profession does not mean slavery-, serving people means serving the needy where the needy are people like the old, young and the sick. Nursing does not also mean forcing an individual to perform a given function but it is out of will and commitment to serve. The society is made of individuals who come together for a common purpose. Nursing therefore entails performing functions that cut across the society. The responsibility of a nurse is to ensure enhanced health to the society. For example, a nurse can be taking care of the sick e.g. dressing wounds, visiting the sick and offering services to them, but at the same time, the nurse might be the one responsible in educating the community in prevention of diseases. Therefore, the nurse has overriding responsibilities and direct responsibilities to the society. For the nurse to perform well her functions in the community, she must be well qualified and well equipped with the knowledge and experience in health care or concerning to the aid she is offering to the community. For example, some nurses have a specialty in wound care, some are specialized in the management of diabetic patients, some the old therefore it is necessary for the nurse to have the relevant knowledg
