The Neuman Systems Model uses a systems approach, and it helps you understand your patients' individual responses to stressors and also families' and communities' responses. Every person develops a set of responses to stress that constitute the "normal line of defense." This line of defense helps to maintain health and wellness. Ego defense mechanisms are unconscious coping mechanisms. Immunity is a body's natural protection mechanism. Pender's Health Promotion Model focuses on promoting health and managing stress.
