Abstract:
A comprehensive assessment tool and intervention typology for adult hemodialysis patients, based on the Roy Adaptation Model, is presented. The Roy model is reviewed, and examples from the assessment tool and intervention typology are presented. A case study illustrates application of the tool and typology to nephrology nursing. Comparison of the tool and typology with the ANNA Standards of Clinical Practice revealed that the Roy Adaptation Model includes additional important aspects of nephrology nursing practice.
