What are the first steps in the ethical decision-making process?

King: Imogene King developed the Theory of Goal Attainment, a nursing theory that focuses on the nurse and patient interacting to achieve goals.

Orem: Dorothea Orem developed the Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory, which emphasizes the patient's self-care needs.

Watson: Jean Watson developed the Theory of Human Caring, which emphasizes the importance of the nurse-patient relationship and the concept of caring in nursing practice.

Wellington-Smith: There is no widely known nursing theorist by this name, making it the correct answer for this question.

An individual who is responsible for his or her health care: While client responsibility is a concept in healthcare, it is not the primary focus of Johnson's Behavioral System Model. The model primarily focuses on the client as a dynamic system.

A behavioral system that is an integrated whole: This statement is partly correct; however, it doesn't fully capture the essence of Johnson's model. Johnson does focus on behavioral systems, but the model is more comprehensive, considering the client as a dynamic entity with inputs, processes, and outputs.

A dynamic entity with both input and output: This accurately reflects the essence of Johnson's Behavioral System Model. In this model, the client is seen as a dynamic system that processes inputs (stimuli from the internal and external environment) and produces outputs (responses or behaviors). The interactions between these inputs and outputs determine the client's adaptation and overall health.

An individual who must adapt to illness: While adaptation is a central concept in Johnson's model, it doesn't solely focus on illness adaptation. It encompasses a broader view of the individual's behavioral responses to various stimuli and stressors in both health and illness contexts.
