moment before I nod. In my mind, she has relented – in reality, I will be sent home with a hastily written request for a parent-teacher conference. We all know the drill by now. A humble five-year-old I was, with no inkling as to what Attention Deficit Disorder was.

The reality that the world faces a water scarcity issue is acknowledged and accepted globally, despite only a small proportion of the population directly feeling the stress of declining water availability. Virtual Water, as discussed by J.A. Allan (2003), refers to the idea that when goods and services are exchanged, so is virtual water. When a country imports 1 kilogram of rice instead of producing it domestically, it is saving around 2,300 cubic metres of real, indigenous water. If this…

Grand theory is a category of nursing theory that is broad in scope and addresses abstract concepts. One such theory is the Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory (SCDNT), developed by Dorthea Orem.
