Ida Jean Orlando Flashcards
Theory of Ida Jean Orlando
Theory of Deliverative Nursing Process (Nursing Process Discipline Theory)
The major dimensions of Orlando’s Nursing Process Theory are as follows:
- Professional nursing function: organizing principle
- The patient’s presenting behavior: problematic situation
- Immediate reaction: internal response
- Deliberative nursing process: reflective inquiry
- Improvement: resolution
The nurse’’s unique function is finding out and meeting the patient’s immediate needs for help
Professional nursing function: organizing principle
The patient’s sense of helplessness, stress, or need originated from physical limitations, adverse reaction to the setting, and experiences that prevent a patient from communicating his or her needs
Professional nursing function: organizing principle
a requirement of the patient which, is fupplied, relieves or diminishes his immediate distress or improving his immediate sense of adequacy or well-being
Need
It is the nurse’s responsibility to meet the patient’s immediate needs for help either by supplying it directly or by calling in the services of others.
Professional nursing function: organizing principle
The central core of the nurse’s practice is to understand what is happening between the patient and the nurse that provides frameworkfor the help the nurse gives the patient
Professional nursing function: organizing principle
Nursing thought in Professional nursing function: organizing principle
Does the patient have an immediate need for help?
The nurse’s focus of inquiry is always on the patient’s immediate experience
Professional nursing function: organizing principle
If the patient is in need and the need is fulfilled, the nursing function has been fulfilled
Professional nursing function: organizing principle
To find out the immediate need for help, the nurse must first recognize the situation as problematic
The patient’s presenting behavior: problematic situation
The presenting behavior of the patient, regardless of the form in which it appears, may be a plea for help
The patient’s presenting behavior: problematic situation
Both the patient and the nurse participate in the exploratory process to identify the problem as well as the solution
The patient’s presenting behavior: problematic situation
The nurse-patient situation is a dynamic whole; each is affected by the behavior of the other. The interaction is unique for each situation
The patient’s presenting behavior: problematic situation
The patient’s behavior stimulates the nurse’s immediate reaction and becomes the starting point of the investigation
The patient’s presenting behavior: problematic situation
The problematic situation in the form of the patient’s presenting behavior (e.g. requests, comments, complaints, questions, moaning, crying, wheezing, clinching fist, pallor, reddened face, difficulty of breathing, increased blood pressure), triggers an automatic immediate reaction in the nurse that is both cognitive and affective.
Immediate reaction: internal response
