Paper Summary:

The paper examines the Orem model that is particularly used in rehabilitation and primary care settings where the patient is encouraged to be as independent as possible. The paper presents an example of the Orem Care Plan model using a fictional movie family from the show "The Other Sister." The writer explores the family and includes environmental and self-care directives for the family members. The paper emphasizes that the Orem model is a model that is founded in the belief that humans will self-direct care once they are given the tools to do so. This model is used to examine the phases and steps in the model and to demonstrate how a model of self-care can be designed and implemented to accommodate individual needs.
