Q

The use of the nursing process brings a scientific problem-solving approach to nursing care, dispelling the traditional image of a nurse as the doctor’s
handmaiden.

“Creative use of self and all ways of knowing as part of the caring process; to engage in the artistry of caring-healing practices”

A

Systematic Use of the Scientific Problem-Solving
Method for Decision Making

86
Q

This factor is an important concept for nursing in that it separates caring from curing. It allows the patient to be informed and shifts the responsibility for wellness and health to the patient. The nurse facilitates this process with teaching-learning techniques that are designed to enable patients to provide self-care, determine personal needs, and provide opportunities for their personal growth.

“Engaging in genuine teaching-learning experience that attends to unity of being and meaning, attempting to stay within others’ frame of reference”

A

Promotion of Interpersonal Teaching-Learning

87
Q

Nurses must recognize the influence that internal and external environments have on the health and illness of individuals. Concepts relevant to the internal environment include the mental and spiritual well being and sociocultural beliefs of an individual. In addition to epidemiological variables, other external variables include comfort, privacy, safety, and clean, aesthetic surroundings.

“Creating healing environment at all levels (physical as well as nonphysical, subtle environment of energy and consciousness, whereby wholeness, beauty, comfort, dignity, and peace are potentiated)”

A

Provision for a Supportive, Protective, and Corrective Mental, Physical, Sociocultural, and Spiritual Environment

88
Q

The nurse recognizes the biophysical, psychophysical, psychosocial, and intrapersonal needs of self and patient. Patients must satisfy lower-order needs before attempting to attain higher-order needs.

Food, elimination, and ventilation are examples of lower-order biophysical needs, whereas activity, inactivity, and sexuality are considered lower-order psychophysical needs. Achievement and affiliation are higher-order psychosocial needs. Self-actualization is a higher-order intrapersonal-interpersonal need.

“Assisting with basic needs, with an intentional caring consciousness, administering ‘human care essentials,’ which potentiate alignment of mind body spirit, wholeness, and unity of being in all aspects of care”

A

Assistance with Gratification of Human Needs

89
Q

Watson believes that nurses have the responsibility to go beyond the 10 carative factors and to facilitate patients’ development in the area of health promotion through preventive health actions. This goal is accomplished by teaching patients personal changes to promote health, providing situational support, teaching problem-solving methods, and recognizing coping skills and adaptation to loss.

* Associated with life processes and maintenance of the integrity of human structure and functioning.
* Common to all, ADL (activities of daily living)

Dependent-care demand

142
Q

It is the relationship between an individual’s therapeutic self-care demand and his or her powers of self-care agency in which the constituent-developed self-care capabilities within self-care agency are inoperable or inadequate for knowing and meeting some or all components of the existent or projected therapeutic self-care demand (Orem, 2001, p.522).

Self-Care Deficit

Q

These are series and sequences of deliberate practical actions of nurses performed at times in coordination with the actions of their patients to know and meet components of patient’s therapeutic self-care demands and to protect and regulate the exercise of development of patients’ self-care agency (orem,2001.p.519).
