Human Needs

• Tensions in a person’s system (physiological or psychological) that motivate goal-directed behavior until the need is fulfilled.

human behaviors

• : Actions influenced by culture, attitudes, emotions, values, and beliefs. They can be common/unusual or acceptable/unacceptable.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs:

•  Prioritizes needs from basic (physiological) to self-actualization. Emphasizes understanding where a person is in the hierarchy to relate to them.

Carl Rogers

• Advocated for client-centered therapy, where individuals are active participants in their care and decision-making.

Darby and Walsh (1991):

• Adapted nursing models to create the Human Needs Conceptual Model for dental hygiene, focusing on client-centered care and quality of life.

Darby and Walsh Human Needs Conceptual Model

• A client-centered model recognizing that everyone has needs.

• Focuses on unmet needs that can be addressed through dental hygiene care.

• Emphasizes the connection between oral health and overall well-being.

• Recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Paradigm

• A widely accepted view or framework that shapes a discipline.

4 key elements of a paradigm

1. Client: The recipient of care, with unique needs and motivations.

2. Environment: Influences both the client and hygienist (e.g., culture, socioeconomics).

3. Health and Oral Health: Seen on a continuum; higher need fulfillment = higher wellness.

4. Dental Hygiene Actions: Interventions to help clients meet their needs.

5. What is the Client-Centered Care Approach?

• The client is an active participant in their care.

• The dental hygienist collaborates with the client to set goals and make decisions.

• Emphasizes respect, autonomy, and individualized care.
