In relation to problems regarding drugs, consumption of alcohol is considered as the leading problem. In addition, the consumption of Nicotine, OTC drugs, and prescription drugs are other prominent issues (McKenzie, Pinger, & Kotecki, 2008).
Based on these statements, create a report in a Microsoft Word document, discussing the following:
Is the diagnosis of mental illnesses still viewed with a negative attitude as was done several years ago? Why or why not?
Are the local and national health care providers adequately responding to the needs of people suffering from mental disorders?

What are the two major types of abused drugs and the age groups most likely to use them? Why is drug usage prevalent among these populations?
What roles should the state governments’ or private health agencies or organizations play in order to prevent and control drug abuse?

Why Nursing Theory?
• Nursing theory: • Guides nursing education, research, and practice.
• Strengthens links between nurses in education, research, and practice.
• Contributes to a well-founded basis for practice.
• Helps nurses develop better understanding of factors affecting family function.
• Directs nurses to more specific purposes than merely filling a gap.
• Considers significant factors that influence nursing , and, therefore, helps nurses in nursing-specific situations.
Nursing Theorists

organism (1860).
• Virginia Henderson: Mind and body are inseparable • No two individuals are alike; each is unique (1966).

• Health pattern: A set of related traits, habits, or acts that affect a client’s health.
• Health promotion: Behavior motivated by the desire to increase well-being and actualize human potential.
Health Assessment & The Nursing Process
• Health assessment is a systematic method of collecting data about a client for the purposes of: • Determining the client’s current and ongoing health status.

Models of Health
• Ecological Model: Examines the interaction of agent, host, and environment.
• Clinical model: Health is defined as absence of disease or injury.
• Eudaemonistic models: View health as actualization and complete development. Illness prevents self-actualization.
• Health promotion model: Defines health as the actualization of inherent and acquired human potential through goal-directed behavior, competent self-care, and satisfying relationships with others.
Nursing Theories & Health Assessment
• Nurses must recognize that each client has a personal definition of health, illness, and wellness.
• Nurses must be aware of their own personal definition of health and accept and respect the client’s definition of health.
Nursing Theories & Health Assessment (continued)
• The importance of a theory depends on the professional and personal values of a person.
• Nurses choose a theory for guiding research, practice, and education.
• Nursing theory challenges existing practice and provides new ways to think about assessing clients and makes it possible for nurses to envision new approaches to practice.
