Domain VI: Professional Growth and Responsibility

The concept of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a theory that suggests that as humans' basic needs are met, they become more motivated to achieve higher levels of motivation. Also known as the Hierarchy of Needs Theory, this model was first proposed by American psychologist, Abraham Maslow, in his 1943 paper ‘A Theory of Human Motivation' and further developed in his 1954 book ‘Motivation and Personality.' According to the theory, human motivations can be classified into five categories or hierarchical level:Safety – focus on survival, food, shelter, water, clothing, and the need for physical and psychological safety.Belongingness and love – seeking connection, affiliation, and acceptance from others.Respect and esteem – focus on developing competence, approval, and recognition.Cognitive – developing a quest for knowledge, understanding, purpose, and an appreciation for goodness, justice, beauty, order, and symmetry.Self-actualization – finding self-fulfillment and recognition of personal potential.
Engaging Patients with Personal Health IT for Quality
Published in Jan Oldenburg, Dave Chase, Kate T. Christensen, Brad Tritle, Engage!, 2020
While some studies have shown a correlation between various kinds of personal health IT and higher levels of patient engagement, it is unclear whether the use of personal health IT caused the engagement or resulted from it. Personal health IT tools cannot force patient engagement, nor can they build trust by themselves; they can, however, present an opportunity for patients to engage by helping them “know their numbers” and become more knowledgeable about their health or their conditions. They can support patients in taking the first steps in engagement or move deeply into personal empowerment and self-actualization. Gamification, which will be discussed in both Chapters 9 and 12, can be used to make the use of personal health IT tools more interesting and even fun for patients.
Rosalie Kane: The Convergence of the Social Worker and the Environmentalist -Our Journey Together
Published in Journal of Gerontological Social Work, 2021
Rosalie was surprised to learn that a theory many Environmentalists use as a basis of their work is Maslow’s (1970) “Hierarchy of Needs” – as she too found that theory helpful in her work. The 5 levels of individuals needs are: 1) physiological needs (to eat, sleep, breathe, and be protected from the elements); 2) safety needs (feeling control over one’s life and environment, and the security of an environment free from external threats); 3) social needs (love acceptance, association with other humans, being needed); 4) self-esteem needs (being accepted by others because of competence or mastery of a task, and attention and recognition from others); and 5) self-actualization needs (realizing one’s full capabilities in terms of achievement and interpersonal relationships). Each one of these levels has environmental analogues. When looking at the design of a traditional nursing home, where the focus is heavily on physiological and safety needs, the environment with its incessant noise and constant light tend not to promote a strong sense of safety, rather the elder often feels fearful. Social needs – corresponding to our gregarious natures and tendency to form relationships – could be more thoughtfully encouraged through better design and placement of congregate spaces to minimize distances traversed for the mobility challenged person. The Green House Model™ nursing home is a good example of a design that supports the Hierarchy of Needs.
Residential Immersive Life Skills Programs: A Catalyst for Facilitating Emotional Literacy Development for Youth with Disabilities
Published in Developmental Neurorehabilitation, 2020
Celeste Duff, Amy C McPherson, Gillian King
The combination of the two previous themes, (enhanced intrapersonal development and shifts in emotional regulation and emotional responses) were found to augment youth’s realized potential and self-actualization. Realized potential is defined as the newfound awareness and recognition of strengths and abilities.29 While, self-actualization is defined as the process of maximizing capabilities and fulfilling one’s potential.29 The real-world experiences of living away from home in the RILS programs exceeded comfort zones for some youth. These experiences, however, activated newfound skills and abilities in youth.30I am capable of living by myself, I can budget, I can clean up after myself, I can make friends! I can live by myself without causing a complete disaster. (Vernon, interview round 3)

These mechanisms may be on a cognitive level or a more psychological, unconscious, level. In developing the program theory, we identified four clusters of mechanisms:Comparing and combining as well as broadening perspectives. Some of the included papers focused on observing other perspectives primarily, while in other papers the emphasis was on contrasting and connecting previously known perspectives with new ones. In this cluster, we included all mechanisms that presume a cognitive or rational response to the changed context and the intervention component.Developing narratives and engagement with patients. In this cluster, the mechanisms are relational and assume social learning. Some of the mechanisms have a focus on developing narratives as meaning making while others were about developing or changing relationships.Self-actualisation. This cluster includes mechanisms that have a focus on the learning of the self, through individual learning processes, such a feeling useful or inspired.Socialisation. This cluster consists of mechanisms that pertain to adaptation or adjustment to the social environment.
