    In the 2002 Neil Noesen case, a woman in Wisconsin went to fill her prescription at a local K-Mart, only to be refused by the only pharmacist on duty at the time, Neil Noesen, because the aforementioned pharmacist was a strict Roman Catholic, and it would be against his principles to give someone contraceptives.

By incorporating Family Theory into her assessments, Ms. Rossow was able to identify the source of this patient’s chief complaint and create a plan to intervene…
