Q

Using the systems perspective, the client may be an individual, a group, a family, a community, or any aggregate.

As they become more complex, the internal conditions of regulation become more complex.

Exchanges with the environment are reciprocal; both the client and the environment may be affected either positively or negatively by the other.

The system may adjust to the environment or adjust the environment to itself.

A

ADAPTATION THEORY (Roy)

42
Q

Physical and chemical processes are involved in the function and activities of living organisms.

Behavior pertaining to the physical aspect of the human system.

Determined by physiological needs, e.g., sleeping after a day’s work. In the physiologic mode, the focus is on five needs (oxygenation, nutrition, elimination, activity, rest and protection) and on four regulatory processes (the senses, fluids and electrolytes, neurologic, and endocrine functions).

Q

The composite of beliefs and feelings held about oneself at a given time.

Focus on the psychological and spiritual aspects of the human system.

Need to know who one is, so that one can exist with a state of unity, meaning, and purposefulness of 2 modes (physical self, and personal self).

Determined by interaction with others. For example, it’s nice to hear someone say, “you’re beautiful in your suit.”

Refers to the performance of duties based on given societal norms or expectations.
Basic need : social integrity, the need to know who one is in relation to others so that one can act.

Example: In today’s society, a “mothering” role often includes being a breadwinner and so a working woman needs to return to her work soon after the delivery of her baby.

A

ROLE FUNCTION MODE (Roy)

45
Q

Behavior pertaining to interdependent relationships of individuals and groups.

Focus on the close relationships of people and their purpose.

Each relationship exists for some reason. Involves the willingness and ability to give to others and accept from others.

Balance results in feelings of being valued and supported by others.

Basic need: feeling of security in relationships

A

ADAPTATION THEORY (Roy)

62
Q

The various modes and subsystems meet the needs of the environment. These are usually stable processes (e.g., breathing, spiritual realization, successful relationship).

  1. Assess the behaviors manifested from the four adaptive modes.
  2. Assess the stimuli, categorize them as focal, contextual, or residual.
  3. Make a statement or nursing diagnosis of the person’s adaptive state.
  4. Set a goal to promote adaptation.
  5. Implement interventions aimed at managing the stimuli.
  6. Evaluate whether the adaptive goal has been met.
A

Q

Advocates fostering efficient and effective behavioral functioning in the patient to prevent illness and stresses the importance of research-based knowledge about the effect of nursing care on patients.

Patterned, repetitive, and purposeful way of behaving.

Determines and limits the interaction between the person and their environment.

Best applied in the evaluation phase, during which time the nurse can determine whether or not there is balance in the subsystems of the patient. If a nurse helps a patient maintain an equilibrium of the behavioral system through an illness in the biological system, they have been successful in the role.
