Chapter 1. Nursing Today
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Contemporary nursing practice is based on knowledge generated through nursing
theories. Florence Nightingales theory introduced the concept that nursing care
focuses on:
1 Psychological needs
2 A maximal level of wellness
3 Health maintenance and restoration
4 Interpersonal interactions with the client
ANS: 3
Florence Nightingale believed the role of the nurse was to put the clients body in the
best state in order to remain free of disease or to recover from disease.
Although Florence Nightingale may have addressed meeting the psychological needs of
her 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.
Florence Nightingale thought the human body had reparative properties of its own if it
was cared for in a way to recover from disease. Her theory did not focus on achieving a
maximal level of wellness.
Florence Nightingale believed the nurse was in charge of the clients health.
Although she interacted with her clients by reading to them, her theory of nursing
care did not focus upon interpersonal interactions.
