INTRODUCTION TO THEORY
• The role of the nurse is to find out and meet the patient's
immediate need for help.
• The patient's presenting behavior may be a plea for help,
however, the help needed may not be what it appears to
be.
• Therefore, nurses need to use their perception, thoughts
about the perception, or the feeling engendered from their
thoughts to explore with patients the meaning of their
behavior.
• This process helps nurse find out the nature of the
distress and what help the patient needs.
• To find out the immediate need for help the nurse must
first recognize the situation as problematic
• The presenting behavior of the patient, regardless of the
form in which it appears, may represent a plea for help
• The presenting behavior of the patient, the stimulus,
causes an automatic internal response in the nurse, and
the nurses behavior causes a response in the patient
