- Abstract
The purpose of this paper was to evaluate a role for the Roy adaptation model (RAM) for the nursing care of military veterans with alcohol use disorder. Parse's criteria were used to critique the RAM. The RAM's humanistic philosophy emphasizes the ability to develop new coping skills and adapt to complex environments. The framework can define physical, emotional, and social responses to stressors faced by veterans. The RAM could guide new research and practice initiatives that optimize the health of military veterans.
