The document discusses Sister Callista Roy's Adaptation Model of Nursing. It defines key concepts such as person, environment, health, and nursing. A person is a holistic, adaptive system that interacts with the environment. Health results from the adaptation of a person to their environment. Nursing aims to promote adaptation through four modes: physiological, self-concept, role function, and interdependence. The document outlines Roy's assumptions and describes the types of stimuli that can influence a person's adaptation responses.
