True or False: The Roper, Logan and Tierney model states that every patient carries out each activity of living in exactly the same way.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Only in pediatric cases

Answer: (B)

The idea behind this model is that people perform activities of living in unique ways and with different levels of independence. It outlines 12 activities that contribute to daily functioning and focuses on how well a patient can carry out each one, plus what support or adaptations they might need. Because each person has different health status, energy levels, routines, environments, and cultural practices, there isn’t a single uniform method that all patients use to perform these activities. Some tasks can be done independently, others require assistance, and the techniques or aids used can vary from person to person while still meeting the same goal. Saying that every patient carries out each activity in exactly the same way ignores these individual differences, so the statement is false.
