Health-promoting behaviors should result in improved health, enhanced functional ability, and better quality of life.
According to the Basic Human Needs model, certain human needs are more basic than others; that is, some needs must be met before other needs (i.e., fulfilling the physiological needs before the needs of love and belonging). Self-actualization is the highest expression of one's individual potential and allows for continual discovery of self. Maslow's model takes into account individ-ual experiences, always unique to the individual.
Nurses using the holistic nursing model recognize the natural healing abilities of the body and incorporate complementary and alternative interventions, such as music therapy, reminiscence, relaxation therapy, therapeutic touch, and guided imagery, because they are effective, economi-cal, noninvasive, nonpharmacological complements to traditional medical care.
The holistic nursing model considers the emotional and spiritual well-being, as well as other di-mensions of an individual, as important aspects of physical wellness.
