Nursing care for K.H :
The goal for the application of the SCDNT to the care of K.H is to know the most appropriate nursing system to meet the self care demand of her condition, the system should be performed to give the optimal positive effect to achieve regulation of K.H.
Diagnostic and Prescriptive Operations:
Table (1) places the data from K.H case into the self care deficit theory framework, showed a summary of the negative condition of her, However, the effects of early socio-cultural factors (limited education, teenage pregnancies) are related to adult experiences an insecure, and limited resources as their financial support is low; living in the unacceptable environment by K.H , her past history and her present illness represent negative influences on her universal, developmental, and health deviation requisites. Essential universal self-care requisites (air, prevention of hazards, and prevention of harm, have been threatened by a history of smoking, inadequate relationship with husband, and psychological dependency as she is clearly depressed. The health deviation self-care requisites influenced by K.H imbalance in universal self care requisites and developmental self care requisites. Limited resources, developmental threats, and weak self-care agency showed in her own awareness and perception of her health deviation self-care requisites. She is should be able to perform self-care and enroll in the treatment of her hypotension case although she lacks the knowledge, skills, and psychological security to do so. I interviewed K.H before discharge that I was concerned with the weak self-care agency shown in K.H

The goal of the design I 'm showing in this paper is to make a change in K.H self-care agency. Table (1) identifies the therapeutic self care demands and stated these demands in the nursing system design for discharge. Four priority diagnoses are
Individualised approach to care planning essay The care planning process is a fundamental part of nursing, Barrett et al (2012) emphasises the importance of the process by recognising it as a clinical skill that needs to be learnt and developed. Care planning enables information to be gathered, taking in to consideration an individual’s biological, psychological, sociocultural, environmental and politico economic status. These factors are incorporated in to the care planning process to enable an individualised care plan that meets the holistic needs of the individual (Doenges and Moorhouse, 2012). The aim of this assignment is to explain and explore an individual approach to care planning and how using a nursing process and nursing model collectively will provide a holistic approach to care.
Theory Evaluation of Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory, Part III Theory Evaluation Dorothea Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory (SCDNT) has been a part of nursing theory since publication in 1971 (Fawcett & Desanto-Madeya, 2012). During this time, it has been used as a framework for many research projects and nursing school curriculum and as a guide to nursing practice (Fawcett & Desanto-Madeya, 2012). Is the theory congruent with current nursing standards?
Philosophy of Nursing Everyone’s values and beliefs about the profession of nursing are all different. The four concepts of nursing are interrelated and all mean something different to every person, too. Throughout this paper, I will be reflecting on my values and beliefs about nursing through the four concepts while comparing them to a nursing theorist with views that are most similar to my own.
Not only do you need to focus on the wellbeing of your patient, but the patient
The final patient related concept, self-care deficit, relates to the inability to provide self-care (Taylor & Renpenning, 2011). The two concepts related to nursing are described as nursing systems, which becomes necessary when the patients’ needs exceed that which can be managed by self–care making nursing required (McEwen & Wills, 2014).Nursing agency is comparable to
The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has a strong stance on nurses and leadership. They believe that nurses are a vital component to health care system and nurses in leadership roles can have a positive impact on such. Nurses are in all sorts of roles within the health care systems ranging from a staff nurse, nurse managers, to advance practice, all the way to congress (Finkelman & Kenner, 2013). In addition, they even serve in the boardroom within some health care organizations. Leadership doesn’t necessarily mean a nurse in a manager position, but a nurse who has an influence on staff.
Any given ward or healthcare environment may choose to implement a nursing model to guide its practice and philosophy. The theoretical framework of Orem’s model can aid knowledge based practice (Anonymous, 2010). As the model encompasses all aspects of the nursing process and acknowledges deficits that are not only a problem at ward level , but for the person post discharges , it is helpful in delivery quality, holistic, care from admission to discharge, allowing for discharge planning. Due to this approach we can derive that the model is beneficial to delivering care at all
Professional practice reflects autonomy when the nurse respects patient’s rights to make decisions about their health care” (Taylor, 1997). At the nursing home, I witnessed many of the nurses discuss with the residents what they wanted to do about certain situations. Autonomy honors the fact that it is the patient and the families right to make certain decisions about health care. Nurses also are constantly making sure that they can provide their patients with the best information to help them make a more successful choice about their health care (Taylor
The concepts of this theory include function of professional nursing, presenting behavior of the patient, immediate reaction, nursing process discipline as well as improvement (Petiprin, 2016). One of the roles of a nurse is to meet the immediate needs of the patient. Patients typically present to a facility with a requirement that should be identified and met by the nurse. The nurse should be able to identify the problematic situation from the patient to be able to address the need for help. The patient develops their perception of events and circumstances based on their automatic feelings and thoughts which causes the patient to have an immediate response.
My perspective on holistic nursing and self-care Introduction In context of World Health Organization, self-care is often defined as activities individuals, families and communities undergoes with the motive of increasing health, overcoming disease, limiting illness and restoring health ("What is", n.d.). The knowledge and skills are gained from both professional and lay experiences for such activities. According to Klebanoff & Hess (2013), holistic nursing is defined as all nursing practice that has only motive of healing the whole person as its prime goal. A holistic nurse is like a licensed nurse who often incorporates a “mind-body-spirit-emotion-environment” approach to the practice of traditional nursing.
The physiological needs are met when the nurses provide the patient with the necessary amount of food, water, oxygen (if needed), blankets for warmth and sleep by providing pain or sleeping pills (if needed). The safety need will be met by the security of the hospital to help the patient feel secure and safe in his/her environment. Love and belongingness can be created through intimacy (if possible), affection and friendship. This can also be given to the patient by his/her family members or friends. To ensure that the patient’s self-esteem needs are met, the Health Care worker has to help to improve the patient’s confidence and independence.
Complexity • Thirteen sub-concepts are to be there in Nightingale’s theory. • The outcomes of application of the theory is patient will remain free of disease by means of healthy environment (Nightingale, 1859). d. Generality • The purpose of the theory is to provide a proper guideline to the nurses through the manipulations to the environment, in order for the patient to receive care and conquer positive health changes. •
Dealing with elimination care, their balance between activities and rest, how they balance solitude and social interactions, the prevention of hazards and the promotion of functioning. (Self-Care Deficit, 2016) The idea of this nursing theory can be applied to solve problems and issues within nursing practice due to nursing theories being the framework and the building blocks of nursing. For the specific theory of Orem’s Self-Care Deficit, the idea of the theory is to be able to assess the patient’s condition, identify the needs and be able to demonstrate communication and interaction with others.
It is very easy to get wrapped up in the day to day tasks that we complete as nurses. But in order to give our patients the best possible care, we must look at our day through a holistic lens. The following essay will outline the theory as created by the “lady with the lamp” Florence Nightingale. We will look at the different components that are important to a patient’s health and outline on to incorporate these components into current practice.
1. NURSING HEALTH ASSESSMENT 2.PLANNING Once a patient and nurse agree on the diagnosis, a plan of action can be developed. If multiple diagnoses need to be addressed, the Head nurse will prioritize each assessment and devote attention to severe symptoms and high factors. Each problem is assigned a clear measurable goal for the expected beneficial outcome.
