The
"Roper-Logan-Tierney Model of Nursing" is a nursing
theory based on activities of daily living (ADLs). It is frequently used in the
UK. It was developed by Nancy Roper, Winifred W. Logan, and Alison J. Tierney.
They were inspired by Virginia Henderson. This theory was set up to assess how
a patient’s life has been altered due to sickness, trauma, or admittance to the
hospital.
This theory characterizes what surviving means. It delves into ADLs that support maximal independence. The goal of this theory is encouraging the patient to be self-sufficient. The theory attempts to define what living means. It categorizes the discoveries into activities of living through complete assessment, which leads to interventions that support independence in areas that may be difficult for the patient to address alone. The goal of the assessment and interventions is to promote maximum independence for the patient (Roper-Logan-Tierney Model of Living, 2011).
