by religious orders dedicated to care of the sick and later in the home by female

n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
until the 1854 Crimean war. There, Florence Nightingale‘s Notes on Nursing introduced the

4. Nursing‘s metaparadigm, or worldview, distinguishes the nursing profession from other
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
disciplines and emphasizes its unique functional characteristics. The four key concepts that
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
formthe foundation for all nursing theories are
n7 7
n n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
a. caring, compassion, health promotion, and education.

b. respect, integrity, honesty, and advocacy.
n7 n7 n7 n7
c. person, environment, health, and nursing.

n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
ACCURATE ANSWER:-C n7
Hypothesis:->>>Individual nursing theories represent different interpretations of the n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
phenomenonof nursing, but central constructs—person, environment, health, and nursing—
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
are found in all theories and models. They are referred to as nursing‘s metaparadigm.

5. When admitting a client to the medical-surgical unit, thenursing attendant asks the client about cultural
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
issues. Thenursing attendant is demonstrating use of the concept of
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
a. person.

c. health.
d. nursing.
ACCURATE ANSWER:-B n7
Hypothesis:->>>The concept of environment includes all cultural, developmental, and social n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
determinants that influence a client‘s health perceptions and behavior. A person is defined as
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
therecipient of
n7 7
n n7
nursing care, having unique bio-psycho-social and spiritual dimensions. The word health
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
derivesfrom the word whole. Health is a multidimensional concept, having physical,
n7 7
n n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
psychological, sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual characteristics. The World Health
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
Organization (WHO, 1946) defines health as ―a state of complete physical, mental, social
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.‖ Nursing includes the promotion
n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
of health, preventionof illness, and the care of ill, disabled, and dying people.

Hypothesis:->>>The concept of environment includes all cultural, developmental, and social n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7 n7
