Theory
FOURTEEN BASIC HUMAN NEEDS
BY VIRGINIA HENDERSON
I say that the care for others what they would do for themselves if they had the strength, the will and the knowledge. But I go onto say that the nurse makes the patient independent for him or her as soon as possible.
Nurse viewed as one who serves to make the patient complete whole or independent. Nurses assist physicians in the implementation of various therapeutic plans with consideration of a highly individualized care. The nurse provided the nursing care to individual in relation to families. This is the concept of environment which functions to support the task of public and private agencies. The society expect nurses to act for individuals who are unable to function independently.
