Abstract
VASQUEZ VENTURA, Ingrid Stephanie; ORTEGA JIMENEZ, Marcela and CONTRERAS-DE LA FUENTE, Hilda Saray. Healthy transition of hispanic immigrant: derivation from a middle-range theory. Index Enferm [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.4, pp.328-332. Epub June 27, 2022. ISSN 1699-5988.
Objective:
To propose a middle-range nursing theory to explain the phenomenon of acculturation stress that the Hispanic immigrant presents during their transition to the United States of America.
Methods:
The theory derivation methodology of Jacqueline Fawcett was carried out.
Results:
The theory reveals the personal, social and environmental factors that impede the transition of the Hispanic immigrant in the United States of America. In addition, this theory exposes a set of propositions for the achievement of a healthy transition.
Conclusions:
The theory of healthy transition contributes to the design of nursing interventions in the process of changing a culture, for the achievement, adoption and mastery of personal, social and environmental strategies that contribute to obtaining a healthy transition in the host country.
