The Four Patterns of Knowledge are essential aspects of becoming a well-rounded nurse. The first Model of Knowledge is empirical. Empirical knowledge is nursing science.

Ultimately, personal knowledge will come as I feel more comfortable with myself and the knowledge I receive in my classes and clinical settings.
