The clients are unique individuals with physiological.' physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs. Medical interventions require the coordinated efforts ofall the various components of the health care delivery system since health and illness are multi-causal.

Nursing personnel should be adequately prepared to assume their various roles in the promotion, maintenance and restoration of health.
