  • the self is conceptualized as an “anxiety system” - where biological needs must be satisfied within a sociocultural environment
  • – when biological need arises it creates tensions that are reduced by specific behaviours
  • nurse’s don’t necessarily act on the needs. They must recognize the patients patterns for meeting these needs and help identify available resources

Mental Health Act (under 16)
- you are an informal patient if you have been admitted to a psychiatric facility on the consent of another person in order to get treatment - the person who has consented to your admission is your substitute decision maker. The person is usually a relative - your status as an informal patient results from the doctor determining that you are not mentally capable of consenting to or refusing a particular treatment. That is why your doctor has obtained substitute consent from your substitute decision maker on your behalf for this treatment, and your admission to a psychiatric facility
