Unique focus of Neuman systems model according to Betty Neuman, (2001) "The Neuman system model reflects nursing's interest in well and ill people as holistic systems and in environmental influences on health. Clients' and nurses' perceptions of stressors and resources are emphasized, and clients act in partnership with nurses to set goals and identify relevant prevention interventions. The individual, family or other group, community or social issues, all are client systems which are viewed as composites of interacting physiological, psychological, sociocultural, developmental and spiritual variables" (p. 322).

More on the origins of NSM (Neuman, 1995) "The development of the wholistic systemic perspective of the Neuman systems model was motivated by my own basic philosphy of helping each other live, many diverse observations and clinical experiences in teaching and encouraging positive aspects of human variables in a wide variety of community settings, and theoretical perspectives and stress related to the interactive, interrelated, interdependent, and wholistic nature of systems theory. The significance of perception and behavioral consequences [also] cannot be overestimated" (p. 675-676) Neuman, B. (1995). The Neuman systems model (3rd ed.). Norwalk, CT: Appleton and Lange.
