The Stuart Stress Adaptation Model of Psychiatric Nursing Care

The Stuart Stress Adaptation Model of Psychiatric Nursing Care integrates biological, psychological, sociocultural, legal, ethical, policy, and advocacy aspects into a unified framework for patient care. The model is based on five assumptions, including that psychiatric nursing care is provided through the nursing process and that health/illness and adaptation/maladaptation are distinct concepts. The model outlines four stages of psychiatric treatment - crisis, acute, health maintenance, and health promotion - each with goals, assessments, interventions, and outcomes. Mental illness is defined as a behavioral or psychological pattern that causes significant distress, impaired functioning, and decreased quality of life. Predisposing factors influence a person's resources for handling stress, and stressful life events
