Henderson defines nursing as assisting the individual, sick or well, in the performance of those activities that will contribute to health, recovery, or a peaceful death, and that the individual would perform unaided if he or she had the necessary strength, will, or knowledge. Roy's model is to help the person adapt to changes in physiological needs, self-concept, role function, and relations. Watson's theory believes that the purpose of nursing action is to understand the interrelationship between health, illness, and human behavior. The goal of Orem's theory is to help the patient perform self-care.
