,3. "I have been feeling depressed ever since my sibling stopped

4. "It is hard to catch my breath when I have an asthma attack."
rationale
According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, self-actualization is
the highest level of need for an individual. If the client intends to
reach their full potential as a human being, this statement
indicates the need to achieve self-actualization. The next level of
need is self-esteem. The client displays a lack of self-esteem by
conveying to the nurse that they lack the skills to achieve
anything in life. The next need is love and belonging. The
client's statement about the cessation of contact with a sibling
illustrates this need. The lowest level of need is physiological
need. A client who voices it is hard to catch my breath is
evidence of a physiological need, oxygen.
