Case study of Human Needs Theory Interactive.
Patient Name: Juan Duran, Mexican American, currently visiting diabetes clinic at the VA, He is exceedingly polite and respectfully healthcare personnel’s. He does not like to interrupt too many questions. He has been USA more than 50 years and navy veterans. Duran was wondering around the hallway and found by Mr. Carson clinical director. Mr. Duran tells him that he’s been instructed start insulin for his diabetes but does not know how. He does not receive call or call for any instructions. Mr. Carson finds diabetes nurse educator Jenny O’Conner and asked her for Mr. Duran’s scheduled for appointment.
Nurse jenny interviewed Mr. Duran.

In addition, the five interacting variable-physiologic, psychological, sociocultural, development, and spiritual-all will be important in his care.
