Abstract

The emergence and use of complex adaptive systems remedied the need for a new alternative by resorting to existing paradigms. Both the health care system and nursing can be regarded as complex adaptive systems by applying a visual model that should be explored to empower the complexity of the science of nursing and health care. Viewed from this perspective, a nurse is a complex adaptive system, one that is dynamic and interacts, but is also an agent of a complex adaptive system in a nursing unit, which in turn is a complex adaptive system in a health organization. Today, nursing professionals seek to be current in terms of training and skilled in a variety of special fields, ranging from neonatal nursing to geriatric care, in order to do their job and to envision a working environment from the perspective of a complex system. Consequently, through complex systems based on shared knowledge among various professional and teamwork, organization of the health-care system is able to enjoy the support of the client-user-professional chain.
