Nursing is a caring relationship. Nurses
grow from novice to expert as they
practice in clinical settings.

A person comprises subsystems that must
remain in balance for optimal functioning.
Any actual or potential threat to this system
balance is a nursing concern.

Nursing is a process of action, reaction,
interaction, and transaction; needs are
identified based on client’s social system,
perceptions, and health; the role of the
nurse is to help the client achieve goal
attainment.

The essence of nursing is care. To provide
transcultural care, the nurse focuses on the
study and analysis of different cultures with
respect to caring behavior.
madeleine leininger
The role of the nurse is viewed as changing
or structuring elements of the environment
such as ventilation, temperature, odors,
noise, and light to put the client into the
best opportunity for recovery.

A person is an open system that interacts
with the environment; nursing is aimed at
reducing stressors through primary,
secondary, and tertiary prevention.

The focus of nursing is on the individual;
clients are assessed in terms of ability to
complete self-care.

The focus of the nurse is interaction with the
client; effectiveness of care depends on the
client’s behavior and the nurse’s reaction to
that behavior.
