DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ENVIRONMENTALIST NURSING THEORYOjective to describe the Environmental Theory of Florence Nightingale based on Meleis´ model for theory evaluation. Methodology:this is a reflective theoretical study conducted in 2015, using pertinent literature and the structural and functional components of the descriptive phase of Meleis´ model of theory evaluation to examine the theory. Results: the theory presents the concepts human being, environment, health and nursing, while focusing on environment control. Nursing action in the treatment of patients implemented in a healthy clean environment constituted the main theoretical proposition for nursing. Conclusions:the Environmental Theory is basic and current, not only because of its description of hygienic actions, micro-organisms, and unsanitary conditions that must be considered in caring for patients, but because of its applicability in nursing practice in relation to the person, environment and health. The theory contains concepts that are fundamental to Nursing.Descriptors: Nursing Theory, Environment, Nursing, Analysis.

200 years of Florence Nightingale: contributions to the professional practice of nurses in hospitals

“…Despite this, the author had a "care philosophy", which, although based on simple elements, showed efficacy (9) and that even today continues to make sense in the professional practice of nurses. With a special focus on the hospital context, even before the appearance of microbiology, she warned of the relationship between environmental determinants, professional behaviors and the spread of infection, thus demarcating fundamental concepts for teaching, practices and the discipline of nursing (3)(4)15) .…”

“…Traditionally, it is agreed that it was from Florence Nightingale that the concern with theoretical aspects emerged in nursing (2,(4)(5) . Most scholars, in addition to naming it as the first modern nursing theorist (6)(7)(8) , see in their book "Notes on Nursing: What it is and What it is not" a theoretical model that they call environmentalist theory (1,4) .…”

Although some authors believe that environmental theory does not stand up to rigorous critical analysis (9) , following an evaluation carried out based on the criteria of the Johnson and Webber model, the researchers concluded that, in addition to the theoretical precepts serving as a reference today, this theory contributes to a surprising difference in nursing practice (1) .…”

“…Although Florence Nightingale did not clearly define the four metaparadigmatic concepts, countless scholars, based on her works, were presenting her conceptions regarding each of the concepts (7) . It should be noted that the legacy left by her has the environment as a fundamental concept for professional nursing practice (1,4,13) . In this context, seeking to know the relevance of Florence's conceptions today was an important challenge for the profession and for the understanding of practices, especially in the hospital context, markedly influenced by scientific advances and new technologies, among other complex influences.…”

Contributo de Florence Nightingale na ascendência do cuidar em enfermagem: do contexto histórico ao cuidado contemporâneo

“…Além disso, a lavagem das mãos, antes e após os cuidados, também se tornou determinante no processo de cura. Tais condutas continuam sendo inseridas no cenário atual (Bezerra et al, 2018).…”
