Dorothea Orems self-care deficit theory is one of the most widely accepted and used of the existing nursing theories. Its popularity can be largely attributed to its common sense approach and relevance to nursing practice. Nursing: Concepts of Practice presents a thorough description of the development of Orems self-care deficit theory and illustrates its application to nursing practice. It provides an approach to knowing and thinkingnursing, which forms the basis and organizing framework for nursing actions in all types of practice situations. The new sixth edition will publish as a classic edition since this will be the last edition written by Dorothea Orem. This edition, presented in four parts, expands upon the application of the self-care deficit theory to nursing practice, the importance of nursing practice models, and the stages of development within the models.
