Abstract
Like the models of nursing developed by Johnson (1980) and Roy (1980), Orem’s Self-Care model emphasises the existence of biological, psychological and social systems within the person. Butterfield (1983), however, has argued that Orem’s model of nursing differs from these other models in terms of its commitment to the concept of the person as a whole.
