Abstract :Objective: The objective of this study is to develop nursing care plans using Henderson\\\'s Needs Theory for patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer and to evaluate their effectiveness. Methods: This study focuses on a male patient diagnosed with rectal cancer at the age of 57. Nursing care plans were developed based on Henderson\\\'s Needs Theory to address the patient\\\'s physiological, psychosocial, and spiritual needs. The effectiveness of nursing interventions and patient satisfaction were assessed throughout the process of achieving identified goals. Results: Nursing interventions such as pain management, wound care, and nutritional support were successfully implemented to address the patient\\\'s physiological needs. Psychosocial support increased the patient\\\'s emotional well-being and strengthened coping skills. Henderson\\\'s Needs Theory enhanced the effectiveness of nursing care by focusing on the holistic well-being of the individual. Conclusion: This study highlights the applicability and effectiveness of Henderson\\\'s Needs Theory in patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Nursing care, by addressing the physiological, psychosocial, and spiritual needs of patients holistically, has the potential to improve their quality of life. These findings may contribute to the enhancement of nursing practices for patients with colorectal cancer.
