Description
Summary:This paper is a personal reflection on the original theory of moral reckoning in nursing, which seeks to answer the question, “Is the Theory of Moral Reckoning in Nursing Ready for Modification?” I was reminded recently to pick up some data I had gathered and left dormant about nurses’ experiences with COVID-19. A question was posed to me about published modified grounded theories. This triggered me to think more about modifying my own theory of moral reckoning to make it more relevant, explanatory, and predictive in today’s healthcare environment. In this paper, I share snippets of data I gathered a couple of years ago and bits of popular, empirical, and theoretical literature which both impel me toward modifying the existing theory.
