Now I would like to present to you who is Faye glenn abdellah

Faye glenn abdellah is a nursing research pioneer who developed

the “Twenty-One Nursing Problems.” that has interrelated the concepts
of health, nursing problems, and problem-solving. Her nursing model
was progressive for the time in that it refers to a nursing diagnosis which
nurses were taught that diagnoses were not part of their role in health
care.

In her early twenties, Faye Abdellah worked as a health nurse at a

private school, and her first administrative position was on the faculty of
Yale University

She also served as Chief Nurse Officer and she was the first nurse officer
to rank a two-star rear admiral, the first nurse, and the first woman to
serve as a Deputy Surgeon General.

faye glenn abdellah also has her own definition of Human beings, Health,
Society and Nursing

In human beings abdellah describes people as having physical,

emotional, and sociological needs. and she described patient as the only
justification for the existence of nursing. and the individuals (and families)
are the recipients of nursing

In health or the achieving of it, is the purpose of nursing services.

Although Abdellah does not define health, she speaks to “total health
needs” and “a healthy state of mind and body.”

And for the society it is included in “planning for optimum health on local,
state, national, and international levels”. However, as she further
delineated her ideas, the focus of nursing service is clearly the individual
and the environment is the home or community from which patient comes

And lastly nursing as a helping profession. she defined it s a

comprehensive service. Nursing care is doing something to or for the
person or providing information to the person with the goals of meeting
needs, increasing or restoring self-help ability and she broadly grouped
it to 21 problem areas to guide care and promote use of nursing
judgment.
