Dunn’s High Level Wellness mixed with Health-Illness Continuum

Posted by Laura on September 22, 2009

laura's Health n' Illness

 

 

Dunn’s High-Level Wellness defines the difference between wellness and good health, using 4 processes: Being, Belonging, Becoming, and Befitting.

The Health-Illness Continum is a measure of a person’s level of health. This circle of being is a continuously changing state.  

 

 

 

Other Models of Health and Illness 

Agent-Host-Environment Model –balance=health, imbalance=risk of disease

Health Belief Model -perception of susceptibility to disease, seriousness of a disease, benefits of action (educative)

Health Promotion Model– Self-esteem from environmental interaction

Who is Dorothea E. Orem?

Posted by Laura on September 21, 2009

Find out more about Dorothea Orem at:    http://www.orem-society.com/

oremUsing the theory of Orem, I follow the idea that people want and are, uniquely responsible for taking care of their health. We all have requirements. Most are general and apply to all; some are more specific depending on our unique selves. These requirements are called ‘Requisites’. How we practice activities to meet the needs of our behalf for wellness is considered ‘Self-Care’ (the ‘agency’ is the ability part). Using the requirements to meet the needs for our wellness is called ‘Self-care Requisites’.

What makes up those requisites you ask?  They are no other than:

Universal Self-Care Req.  Developmental Self-Care Req.

Health Deviation Self–Care Deficits

After you have identified these requisites, you can then make them more unique by the Basic Conditioning Factors. These are the items which are general groupings (age, gender, etc). From here we would now know what was needed universally, developmentally, and our health deviations, but are also influenced by Basic Conditioning Factors.bowl of cherries - pits

Pulling in the Power Components (which is a lot like a focused Health Deviation Self-Care Deficits to me) help maintain our life, health and well being, and are strongly influenced by the Basic Conditioning Factors. Such as the ‘ability to control movement’ – PC. This could be influenced by ‘Age’ or ‘Available Resources’ (no wheel chair) – BCF.

USCR + DSCR + HDSCD filtered by BCF and PC= TSCD

We now know the total of actions needed to meet our original requirements. This is considered the Therapeutic Self-Care demands.

So if the Self Agency (our ability) is less than our Therapeutic Self-Care Demand (USCR/ DSCR/ HDSCD filtered by BCF/PC), which cannot provide the necessary requirements, then we have a Self-Care Deficit.

SCA < TSCD = SCD

Any Self-Care Deficit shows a need for nursing. The Nursing Agency, or our ability to provide nursing care, is utilized through a Nursing Process of our beloved ADPIE. (Assessment, Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation)

The Nursing System of care, be it wholly or partially compensatory, or supportive education will involve 5 points:

1.       acting for the patient

2.       teaching

3.       guiding

4.       supporting

5.       providing a developmental environment

SCA < TSCD = SCD

Posted by Laura on August 28, 2009

If I had a daughter who has a closed full of clothes to wear, from socks and shoes, to coats and hats (universal), and she has the growing pre-teen desire to stay up with fashion(developmental), she may wish to dress herself even though she may be color-blind(health deviation). Given the fact that she is 12 and always trying to stay up with odd trends(Basic Con. Fact.), she may need some guidance to dress appropriately for church(therapeutic). So if I take away the fact that she can dress herself(self-care) and knows she must go to church(self-care agency), I may come in to offer her SCD. So in other words, we may have been doing this self-care theory all along!
