ATI RN LEADERSHIP MANAGEMENT PROCTORED EXAM
VERSION 1
1. Although there are similarities in the different nursing theories, there are key elements that distinguish one from another. The emphasis of Jean Watsons conceptual model is that:
1 Self-care maintains wholeness
2 Stimuli disrupt an adaptive system
3 Subsystems exist in dynamic stability
4 Caring is central to the essence of nursing
ANS: 4
Like Benner and Wrubels theory, Watson emphasized caring in her theory. Watsons model is designed around the caring process, assisting clients in attaining or maintaining health or in dying peacefully. The key emphasis of her theory is that caring is the moral ideal: mind-body- soul engagement with another.
Self-care is central to Orems theory.
The key emphasis of Roys theory is that stimuli disrupt an adaptive system.
The key emphasis of Johnsons theory is that subsystems exist in dynamic stability.

2. A community health nurse is working with a variety of clients and decides to use a systems theory approach to assist them to meet their health care needs. In using this approach, the nurse focuses on the:
1 Hierarchy of the clients human needs
2 Clients interaction with the environment
3 Clients attitudes toward health behaviors
4 Response of the client to the process of growth and development
ANS: 2
According to systems theory, a system is made up of parts that rely on one another, are interrelated, share a common purpose, and together form a whole. A clients interaction with the environment is an example of an open system. The nurse understands factors that change the environment can also have an impact on the system.
Maslows hierarchy of human needs is an interdisciplinary theory useful in planning individualized care.
