All humans have basic needs that are based on physicality such as water, food, movement, air, elimination and sufficient rest. Problems tend to arise when any of these physiologic needs remain unmet for an extended length of time. The intended purpose of this course is to shed some light upon the massive role that basic needs play in the realm of basic nursing care.
