Theoretical assumptions:
The first assumption model Stuart Stress Adaptation is that nature is ordered as a social hierarchy, from the simplest to the most complex devices. At each level there is also a part of the next higher level, that nothing exists in isolation. Thus, man is part of a family, group, community, society, and the biosphere more.
The second assumption of the model is that health care is a biological, psychological, socio-cultural context of environmental protection, and legal and ethical issues.
The nurse must understand each of them, in order to ensure a proper, holistic mental health care.
The theoretical basis for the practice of mental health care comes from the study, as well as behavioral sciences, social and biological.
This means that a person with medically diagnosed disease may well adapt to it. An example of this is the adaptive coping responses used by some people who have chronic physical or mental disease. In contrast to those without medically diagnosed with the disease can have many answers maladaptive coping. These two continuums therefore reflect the complementary nature of the medical model of care and practice.
The fourth assumption is that the model includes primary, secondary and tertiary levels of prevention, describing four distinct phases of mental health: Crisis, acute, maintenance and promotion of health. At each stage of the treatment model suggests treatment target, focus, health assessment, the nature of nursing interventions and expected outcomes of nursing care.
The fifth assumption of the model Stuart Stress Adaptation is that it is based on the use of the nursing process and standards of care and professional performance for psychiatric nurses. Psychiatric nursing care through the assessment, diagnosis, outcome identification, planning, implementation and evaluation.

Describing the mental health and illness:
Defining mental health:
Mental health is often said that the welfare state related to happiness, contentment, satisfaction, achievement, optimism, and hope. These terms are difficult to determine, and the significance of the change, which relate to a particular person and circumstances.
The criteria for mental health. The following six criteria are indicators of mental health:
Positive attitudes toward each other
Growth, development and self-realization
Integration
Autonomy
The perception of reality
Environmental mastery
Positive attitudes toward each other and the self-awareness and self-acceptance.
Growth, development and self-realization means that the person is a new experience to fully explore aspects of yourself.
Integration is a balance between what is expressed and what is suppressed, conflicts between the outer and inner.
Anatomy is self-determination, balance and independence, and the adoption of the consequences of their actions.
Each person should be seen in both the individual and the context
Dimensions of mental health:
The Global Burden of Disease Study has shown so the true size of the long underestimated the impact of mental health problems. In addition, by 2020, mental disorders will increase, and the depression is expected to become the second leading cause of morbidity worldwide. The Global Burden of Disease Study was so eye opening for public health in the integration of mental health and public high-lighting the importance of mental disorders.
Ingredients: biopsychosocial
Stuart Stress Adaptation model of mental health care perceives human behavior from a holistic perspective that integrates biological, psychological and socio-cultural aspects of care.
Holistic nature of nursing practice psychiatric analyzes all aspects of the person and the environment.
Predisposing factors:
Factors predisposing risk factors, which affect both the type and number of people can use to cope with stress and are biological, psychological and socio-cultural in nature.
Biological factors predisposing to genetic, nutritional status, biological sensitive, general health, and exposure to toxins.
Psychological factors predisposing to intelligence, verbal skills, morals, personality, past experiences, self-esteem, motivation, psychological defense, and a sense of control, or a sense of control over their own destiny.
Socio-cultural factors that predispose such age, sex, education, income, occupation, social status, cultural background, religious training and beliefs, political affiliation, socialization experiences and levels of social inclusion or relationship.
Stressful precipitation:
Precipitating Stressors are stimuli that are difficult, threatening or requiring the unit. They require extra energy and create a state of tension and stress. They may be biological, psychological, or social in nature, and may be derived either from those internal and external environment.
In addition to describe the nature and origin of the stressor, it is important to evaluate the terms stressor. The final factor to take into account a number of stressors an individual experiences.
Score from stressor
Score from stressor involves determining the meaning and understanding of the impact of a stressful situation for the individual. This includes cognitive, affective, physiological, behavioral and social responses. Evaluation is to assess the importance of the event in relation to persons being. Stressor assumes its importance, intensity and importance as a consequence of the unique interpretations and meanings given to him by a person at risk.

Coping resources:
Resources to cope with stress are the options and strategies that will help you determine what you can do as well as what is at stake.
Coping resources such as economic assets, abilities and skills, defensive techniques, social concern, and motivation. Other remedies to health and energy, spiritual support, positive beliefs, problem solving and social skills, social and material and physical well-being.
Mechanisms for coping with stress:
Coping mechanisms are all efforts aimed at managing stress. Three main types of coping mechanisms are as follows:
Problem-focused coping mechanisms that include tasks and activities directly dealing with the treatment. Examples include negotiation, confrontation and seeking advice.
Cognitive focused coping mechanisms by which man tries to control the importance of the problem, and thus neutralize. Examples include the positive comparison, selective ignorance, replacement awards and the devaluation of the desired objects.
Emotion-focused coping mechanisms through which the patient is directed to moderate emotional. Examples include the use ego defense mechanisms such as denial, suppression or projection. A detailed discussion of coping and defense mechanisms.
Mechanisms to deal with stress can be constructive or destructive.
Patterns of responses:
The model Stuart Stress Adaptation of an individual's response to stress is based on a set of predisposing factors, the nature of the stressor, the perception of the situation and analysis of coping mechanisms and resources. Dealing patient's reactions are then evaluated on a continuum of adaptation / maladaptation.
