This document discusses several conceptual models in nursing including Sister Callista Roy's Adaptation Model, Dorothea Orem's Self-Care Deficit Theory of Nursing, and Patricia Benner's Nursing Expertise Model. It also profiles several influential Filipino nurses such as Sister Letty Kuan, known for her work in neuropsychology and neurogerontology, and Carmencita Abaquin, who developed the "PREPARE ME" holistic nursing intervention for cancer patients. The intervention uses techniques like presence, prayer, reminiscence therapy, and meditation to provide symptom relief and improve quality of life for terminally ill cancer patients.

compensate for the their health-associated limitations and
engaging in actions to regulate their own functioning and

studies the lived experiences of patients on health, illness, and
disease, and the relationships among these three elements.”
