Dorothy Johnson (Behavioral Systems Model)

D​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​orothy Johnson viewed health as efficient and effective functioning of the system, and as behavioral system balance and stability. Behavioral system balance and stability are demonstrated by observed behavior tha​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​t is purposeful, orderly, and predictable. Consider a clinical-practice situation that demonstrates Johnson’s model of health. How can the nurse support this theory to return the patient to balance and stabili​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​ty?
