Virginia Henderson’s need theory
Virginia Henderson’s need theory provides a definition of
nursing care and describes specific areas in which nursing care

11. is needed.
“The unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual,
sick or well, in the performance of those activities contributing
to health or its recovery (or to peaceful death) that he would
perform unaided if he had the necessary strength, will or
knowledge. And to do this in such a way as to help him gain
independence as rapidly as possible” (Henderson, 1966).
Henderson developed 14 concepts based on human needs and
categorized them as physiological, psychological, spiritual, or
social.
Virginia Henderson believed that knowing the fundamental
needs of a patient will contribute to how the nurse will care for
the patient. It is beneficial to care for the patient until the
patient can care for themselves or aid them in a peaceful death.
(Henderson, 1966) She developed 14 concepts based on those
human needs and categorized them as physiological,
psychological, spiritual, or social (Henderson’s nursing need
theory, (2016). Her concepts examine the individual
holistically.
2
Henderson’s 14 basic needs:
Henderson believes these 14 components are part of basic
nursing care to return the patient to their optimal self. To do so,
the nurse must have a nurse-patient relationship to achieve this
goal (Vera, 2011).These are specific, effective concepts of how
nurses should assess and interact with the patient.

12. 3
Physiological:
Breathe normally
Eat and drink adequately
Eliminate body wastes
Move and maintain postures
Sleep and rest
Dress and undress
Maintain body temperature
Protect integument
Avoid dangers
Psychological:
Communicate needs and concerns

13. Spiritual:
Worship one’s faith
Social:
Work with a sense of accomplishment
Participate in Recreation (Gonzalo, 2014)
Learn and discover normal development and health and use
health facilities
Nursing practice
Henderson’s 14 components can be used as a guide in the
nursing process to assist the nurse in her practice.
Assessment phase --- Assess patient using the 14 basic needs.
Analyze patient data.
Planning phase --- Meeting individual’s needs, updating the
plan as necessary based on the changes and as prescribed by the
physician.
Implementation phase --- Individualized interventions
depending on factors and needs.
Evaluation phase --- Evaluate according to the degree in which
the patient performs independently.

14. Henderson believed in having an individualized care plan for
each patient. She believed critical thinking is essential in this
implementation. The fundamental needs of the patient, the
planning and implementing of interventions, and the evaluation
of the patient’s outcome are all crucial elements in Henderson’s
need theory that contribute to the nursing process. The patient
is examined holistically to achieve a common goal of optimal
independence. It applies to every day clinical decision-making
of nursing practice.
