King’s Theory of Goal Attainment
The middle-level theory that I am going to put into consideration in this assignment is the King’s Theory of Goal Attainment. This theory describes how dynamic interpersonal relationships between any person and the patients grow as well as develop towards the attaining of the patient’s life goals. The approach puts into consideration the various factors contributing to the attainment of the goals as roles, the time, and the stress on the patient. This theoretical framework has three basic systems which are the personal, interpersonal as well as the social systems of the patient. Each of the three systems has its specific concepts for the perception of the personal system, development, and self-growth. The basic concepts for the interpersonal systems include interaction, transaction, communication, and roles. The social system concepts are power, authority, decision making, and status.
The human life revolves around dynamic health changes and experiences, which is an implication that the person goes about adjustments continuously as there is an inherent presence of stressor within both the internal and external environments. The CAUTIs is one of the health concern that the people of Alabama found themselves in. It is dynamic in the manner that its proper preventive measure has not yet been established despite so much effort on the scientists — moreover, its a general stressor to both the patients and the doctors as well as researchers.
