Healthcare collaboration | Nursing homework help
My observation allowed me to recognize the Care Model of Nursing as the most prevalent model. Care Model’s patient-centered philosophy emphasizes personalized, individual care. This was evidenced by the nurse’s focus on addressing each patient’s unique situation and responding in ways that best suited their particular circumstances—such as offering a blanket for an elderly woman who mentioned feeling cold or talking with a younger man about his recent move to a new city.
The nurse also seemed to be keenly aware of her role in supporting patients’ autonomy and self-care capabilities; she would often ask questions such as “Is there anything else you need? What would you suggest we do next? How can I help?” She even inquired about whether they had any spiritual or cultural beliefs that might guide their decisions. In addition, she showed respect for patients’ autonomy by allowing them to take care of themselves despite any risks.
