theories. Florence Nightingales theory introduced the concept that nursing care focuses
on:
1 Psychological needs
2 A maximal level of wellness

in order to remain free of disease or to recover from disease.

clients, it is not the focus of her theory. The goal of Nightingales theory is to facilitate the bodys
reparative processes by manipulating the clients environment.
