Q

It is the mutual, continuous relationship between the human energy field and the environmental field. The fields that are one integrated but unique to each other

A

Integrity

20
Q

What are the assumptions of this theory?

A
  1. Man is unified whole processing his own integrity and manifesting characteristics that are more than and different from the sum of his parts.
  2. Man and the environment are continuously exchanging matter and energy with one another.
  3. The life process evolves irreversibly and unidirectionally along with the space-time continuum
  4. Pattern and organization identify the man and reflect his innovative wholeness.
  5. Man is characterized by the capacity for abstraction and imagery, language and thought sensation and emotion.
21
Q

She is the theorist who said that “the condition that validates the existence of a requirement for nursing in an adult is the absence of the ability to maintenance continuously that amount and quality of self-care which is therapeutic in sustaining life and health, in recovering from diseases or injury, or in coping with their effects.

A

22

A

23
Q

  5. Groups of human beings with structured relationships cluster tasks and allocate responsibilities for providing care to group members,
30

Q

It is defined as actions directed towards the provision of self-care. It is presented in 3 categories

A

Self-Care Requisites

35
Q

What are the 3 categories of Self-Care Requisites

A

Universal Self-Care Requisites, Developmental Self-Care Requisites, and Health Deviation Self-Care Requisites

36
Q

It is the self-care requisites that is associated with the life processes and the maintenance of the human structure and functioning integrity

A

Universal Self Care Requisites

37
Q

These are either specialized expressions of universal self-care requisites that have been particularized for development processes

A

Developmental Self-Care Requisites

38
Q

A

Health Deviation Self-Care Requisites

39
Q

What are the universal self-care requisites

A

The maintenance of a sufficient intake of air

The maintenance of a sufficient intake of water

The maintenance of a sufficient intake of food

The provision of care associated with the elimination process and excrements

The maintenance of a balance between solitude and social interaction

The prevention of hazards to human life, human functioning, and human well-being

The promotion of human functioning and development within social groups in accord with human potential, known human limitations, and the human desire to be normal

Normalcy is used in the sense of that which is essentially human and that which is in accord with the genetic and constitutional characteristics and individuals’ talents.

40
Q
