Answer the following :
1. Look for theories related to care of the mother and child, then write your insight about the
different theories Maternal and child ( atleast 3)
1. Madeleine Leininger:
Madeleine Leininger is known for her Theory of Cultural Care Diversity and Universality.
She emphasized the importance of culturally competent care and believed that nurses should
study and understand different cultures to provide appropriate care.
Leininger's theory highlights the need for nurses to be sensitive to the cultural beliefs, values,
and practices of their clients and to incorporate these cultural factors into the care provided.
2. Ida Jean Orlando:
Ida Jean Orlando's nursing theory focuses on the nurse-client interaction and communication.
She believed that effective nursing care depends on the nurse's ability to understand and
respond to the client's behavior and needs.
Orlando emphasized that the client should define their own needs, and the nurse's role is to
help the client meet those needs through therapeutic communication and actions.
3. Dorothea Orem:
Dorothea Orem's nursing theory is known as the Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory.
She emphasized that nursing care should be based on an individual's ability to perform self-care
activities.
Orem categorized nursing care into three modes:
Wholly compensatory care: In this mode, the nurse takes full responsibility for the client's self-
care. The client is unable to participate in their care.
Partly compensatory care: The client and the nurse share responsibility for self-care activities.
The client has some ability to participate.
Supportive-educational care: Here, the nurse's role is to support and educate the client in
performing their own self-care. The client is capable of self-care but may need guidance and
education.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations encompass
several goals and targets directly related to mother and child care. Goal 3, "Good Health and
Well-being," is central to this focus, with targets aimed at reducing maternal and child mortality
rates. Goal 2, "Zero Hunger," addresses the importance of nutrition during pregnancy and early
childhood. Goal 5, "Gender Equality," ensures access to maternal healthcare and family
planning services for women. Goal 6, "Clean Water and Sanitation," indirectly contributes to
better maternal and child health by preventing waterborne diseases. Achieving these goals is
crucial for improving the well-being of mothers and children globally, creating a world where
they have access to the care and resources needed for healthy lives.
