Orem'S Self Care Deficit Nursing Theory: Janet Secrest, PHD RN University of Tennessee at Chattanooga

Orem's Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory has three main theories: self-care, self-care deficit, and nursing systems. It identifies universal, developmental, and health deviation self-care requisites that are influenced by basic conditioning factors and power components. Orem's nursing process involves assessing these components, diagnosing self-care deficits, prescribing nursing systems, and regulating/controlling care to promote the patient's self-care agency. The goal is for patients to meet their own self-care needs.

2. overcome interferences with
development

 educational deprivation

 problems of social adaptation

 failures of healthy individuation

 loss of relatives, friends, associates, possessions

2. overcome interferences with
development

 abrupt change of residence

(Theory 2) Theory of Self-Care Deficit

There IS need for nursing

S-c abilities < therapeutic demands

therapeutic demands >s-c abilities


(Theory 3) Theory of Nursing System

Systems formed by nurses that compensate for


those in need of nursing . . .

i.e., unable to meet health related S-C requisites


Nursing System

 Wholly compensatory

 Partially compensatory

 Supportive educative
(developmental)
*analogy by Hilda Horton
Bicycle for two analogy

The nurse is in the back seat

Wholly compensatory: Nurse only pedals

Partially compensatory: Nurse pedals, patient pedals

Supportive-educative: Patient only pedals, nurse provides


guidance
Theory of self care

Traditional Orem

Assessment Diagnosis
Diagnosis
Diagnosis

1. Assess self care requisites, basic


conditioning factors, power components

2. Analyze data

3. Formulate self care deficit statement (s)


(nursing diagnosis)
Theory of self care deficit

Traditional Orem

Planning Prescription
Prescription

1. State particularized self care requisite


statement [goal statement]

2. State step by step interventions that lead


patient to meet particularized self care requisite
statement (goal), leading to self care agency
for that self care requisite.
Theory of nursing system

Traditional Orem

Implementation Regulation
Evaluation Control
Regulation, Control

Carrying out the prescription—how does


the pt respond? Is this appropriate?

Control--appraisal process--the progress


toward the goal or outcome of self care
agency

Control = evaluation
