bases and spiritual drive.
In Roper-Logan-Tierney Model of
Nursing, a person is viewed as an
integrated individual with
physiological, psychological,
socio-cultural, politico-
economical and spiritual
components. It is having the
ability to perform the activities of
daily living, which are essential
that enhances the quality of life.
The person is valued at all stages
of the lifespan that is infancy,
childhood, adolescence,
adulthood, and old age.
Throughout the lifespan until
adulthood, the person tends to
become increasingly
independent in the activities of
daily living. While independence
in the ADL's is valued,
dependence should not diminish
the dignity of the person.
The person is a self-interpreting

It is the degree of wellness or
illness experienced by the
person. The health status of the
person is dependent on one’s
ability to adapt to, and cope
with the challenges affecting
life. Roper et al identified factors
that affect a person’s
adaptation to illness.
Dr. Benner focusses on the lived
experience of being healthy
and ill.
Health is defined as what can
be assessed, whereas well-
being is the human experience

stressors and resources for
adapting to stressors.
According to the Roper-Logan-
Tierney Model for Nursing,
environmental factor is one of
the five factors that influence the
activities of living. The
incorporation of these factors
into the theory of nursing makes it
a holistic model. The
environmental factor in Roper's
theory of nursing makes it a
"green" model. The theory takes
into consideration the impact of
the environment on the activities
of daily living, but also examines
the impact of the activities of
daily living on the environment.
Benner uses situation rather than
environment because situation
conveys a social environment
with social definition.
To be situated implies that one
has a past, present and future
and that of these aspects
influence the current situation.
The environment has two
dimensions, the developmental
environment, which provides the
context for other development
arenas, and the situational
environment that occurs when
the nurse and client interact.
