Roy’s Adaptation Model: Effect of Care on Pediatric Patients
Journal Title: International Journal of Nursing & Midwifery Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
With focus on groups of children who have increased morbidity, Roy’s adaptation model (RAM) is one of the most useful conceptual frameworks that guide nursing practice. It focuses on individual’s adaptation to changeable environment and guides the assessment of individual’s adaptation. The four modes of adaptation defined in RAM are physiologic, self-concept, role function and interdependence modes. Nurses help to meet the needs of individuals in these modes of adaptation
