system (family, community, etc.) Judgement- Taking the provocative facts of the client's situation and organizing them in a way that makes sense and adds meaning to the patient's circumstances, in order to decide patient needs and possible nursing interventions. Using these judgments to decide about a patient's needs is referred to as trophicognosis. Hypotheses- Using his or her formed judgment, the nurse will speak with the client regarding these judgments with the client. Hypothesizing about the problem and its solution will eventually form a care plan'' for the patient. Interventions- With the aim of promoting wholeness and adaptation, the nurse tests his/her hypothesis via direct care. These interventions aim to address the four areas of wellness (energy conservation, structural integrity, personal integrity and social integrity). Evaluation- Evaluation of the interventions aimed at supporting the nurse's hypotheses seek to assess the client's response to the interventions. The evaluation considers both supportive outcomes (providing comfort to the client) and therapeutic outcomes (improving the client's sense of wellness). Limitations Due to the fact that the Conventional Model primary focus is on the individual and their wholeness measured by one's personal and emotional well being during a specific period of time, it has been contested that this model is not the best suited when it comes to addressing one's illness in the long term. Thus, the conventions that Levine imposes on nursing students are more driven towards a patient's satisfaction in their current state without looking to future conditions. In addition, satisfying only current conditions does not allow room for nurses to attempt to prevent illness if following this specific model as they are concentrated more on the individual than the illness.
