Paper Summary:

This paper examines Dorothea Orem's self-care deficit theory, focusing primarily on the concepts of health and nursing espoused by the theory, as well as on how the theory is best evaluated.

From the Paper:

"Orem's self-care deficit theory is based in her view of the person and their varying abilities in regard to self-care. Orem's theory provides explanations for how and why people care for themselves or for other people who are dependent on them (Dennis, 1997). Self-care deficit theory actually is made up of three linked theories: self-care, self-care deficit, and nursing systems."
