    Study Notes

    Nursing as a System

    • Nursing focuses on self-care more than any other health discipline.
    • There are five methods of helping patients:
      • Acting for or doing for the patient
      • Teaching the patient
      • Directing the patient
      • Supporting the patient
      • Providing an environment for the patient
    • There are three types of nursing systems:
      • Wholly compensatory- patient cannot perform self-care
      • Partly compensatory- limited mobility due to illness
      • Supportive educative- patient is capable of learning to perform self-care.

    Imogene King’s Goal Attainment Theory

    • Explains how the needs of a patient can be met by the nurse, patient or both.
    • Decision making, choices, alternatives, and outcomes of nursing care are important for all individuals involved.
    • Interaction, perception, communication, transaction, self, role, stress, growth and development, time and personal space are important aspects.
    • Nursing is different from other healthcare professions because of what nurses do for and with individuals.
    • People have three fundamental needs:
      • Information on health
      • Care in times of need or illness
      • Care that aims to prevent illness
    • There are three types of interacting systems:
      • Personal: the individual
      • Interpersonal: individuals interacting with one another
      • Social: groups of people sharing common goals, interests, and values
    • The ADPIE nursing process (Assessment, Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation) is used to meet patient goals.

    Sister Callista Roy’s Adaptation Model

    • Goal of the model is to help people adapt to environmental stressors.
    • Adaptation is the process of changing or adjusting to meet new conditions.
    • Roy's model views people as adaptive systems.

    Roy's Adaptation Model Concepts

    • Individuals:
      • Regulator Subsystem: Uses physiological responses (e.g. chemical, neurologic, endocrine) to cope with environmental changes.
      • Cognator Subsystem: Involves cognitive and emotional processes that interact with the environment.
    • Groups:
      • Stabilizer Subsystem: Structures, values, and daily activities work together to fulfill the group's purpose.
      • Innovative Subsystem: Response to environmental change.

    Roy's Model: Importance of Adaptation

    • People are viewed as holistic adaptive systems with coping processes.
    • Adaptation helps maintain equilibrium and promote transformation between people and their environments.
    • The model is conceptual and deductive.
    • It is based on causality.
    • It explains how people adapt to illness and stressors.

    Roy's Adaptation Model: Key Concepts

    • People as Open Adaptive Systems: People interact with their environments.
    • Coping Mechanisms: People develop strategies to manage stress and maintain health.
    • Adaptation Levels: Different levels of adaptation occur, influencing health and wellness.

    Roy's Model: Key Elements in Adaptation

    • Stimuli: Internal or external factors that trigger a response.
    • Cognitive Appraisal: Individual's interpretation of the situation and its impact.
    • Regulator and Cognator Subsystems: Physiological and psychological responses to stimuli.
    • Adaptive Responses: Actions taken to cope with stressors and maintain health.
    • Outcome: The result of the adaptation process.

    Roy’s Model: Application in Nursing

    • Helps nurses understand how individuals adapt to illness and stressors.
    • Provides a framework for nursing interventions to promote adaptation.
    • Emphasizes the importance of the nursing assessment to identify individual needs and stressors.
    • Nursing interventions can be tailored to support adaptation.

    Roy’s Model: Limitations

    • Complex model can be challenging to apply in practice.
    • May focus too much on the individual's adaptation without considering broader social and environmental factors.
    • It can be subjective, as the interpretation of stimuli and responses can vary.
