This study is drawn up from Callista Roy¶s Adaptation model. Callista Roy
describes a person as an adaptive system with coping processes and functions as a
unity of some purpose. A person is an adaptive system with cognator and regulator
subsystems acting to maintain adaptation in the four adaptive modes: physiologic-
physical, self-concept-group identity, role function, and interdependence.

Two of the adaptive modes that relate directly to this study are the role
function and interdependence. Individual role function describes that need is social
integrity; knowing who one is in relation to others so one can acct; role set is the
complex of positions individual holds; involves role development, instrumental
and expressive behaviors, and role taking process. On the other hand, group role
function describes that need is role clarity, understanding and committing to fulfill
expected tasks so group can achieve common goals; process of integrating roles in
managing different roles and their expectations; complementary roles are
regulated. Individual interdependence points the need to achieve relational
integrity using process of affection adequacy, i.e., the giving and receiving of love,
respect, and value through effective relations and communication. Group
interdependent points out the need to achieve relational integrity using processes of
developmental and resource adequacy, i.e., learning and maturing in relationships
and achieving needs for food, shelter, health, and security through independence
with other.

The figure above shows that rotating area of assignment is a stimulus

which has a direct effect to the nurse specifically affecting the quality of the
practice they do as the process of transition goes in adapting every time to
their work as the arrow shows. This indicates their interrelationship with
each other.
