Integrating conceptual and theoretical frameworks when working with families is:
1. Confusing, because integration makes it difficult to create evidence-based approaches.
2. Important, because no one conceptual or theoretical framework is sufficient.
3. Not necessary if a middle-range nursing theory is used.
4. Helpful, because the nurse can see the uniqueness of the individual through this lens.

Feedback
1 Integration of frameworks assists the nurse in creating evidence-based approaches.
2 Integrating conceptual and theoretical frameworks gives the nurse broader choices from which to create evidence-based approaches.
3 One middle-range theory may not be appropriate for specific families.
4 Seeing the uniqueness of the individual is not necessarily supported by use of any one conceptual or theoretical framework; the process of assessment is still needed.
