Abstract
A holistic model of women's health nursing is developed, using Lancaster and Lancaster's (1981) steps in model building. The model is based on women's conscious awareness of problems existing in eight identified categories. Depression and problems with sexuality are permeating concepts within the model, because women's problems influence and are influenced by these concepts. Integration of the body, mind, and spirit is the overarching concept in the model, because integration may be altered when problems exist within the eight categories. Interrelationships among the categories of the model and the goals of the model are presented. The model provides the practitioner with a systematic way of organizing collected data.
