“…In Orem's Individual Self‐Care Model, it is essential to assist the individual until a balance between the individual's self‐care ability and own care needs is reached and to help the individual undertake the responsibility of his/her individual care function (Rosenbaum 1986, Hannacharumcul 1989, Simmonds 1990, Orem 1991, 1995, Lukkarinen & Hentinen 1997, Söderhamn & Cliffordson 2001, Taylor et al. 2001).…”

“…Leininger (as cited in Rosenbaum, 1986) defined care as "supportive actions that assist, support, or help another person or group with evident or anticipated needs to improve a human condition or lifestyle" (p. 414). The definition is all-encompassing and involves a complete assumption of responsibilities and activities the individual is unable to perform independently.…”

The purpose of the research reported in this article was to describe the experiences of caregivers who were providing care to an individual who recently had been discharged from a physical rehabilitation program. The research was aimed at answering the questions, "What is the meaning ascribed to the caregiver role?" A convenience sample of 10 caregivers was interviewed. Most of the caregivers (80%) were female; all were relatives of the individual requiring care. These family members believed that caregiving was their responsibility by virtue of relationship, or that no one else was available to assume the caregiving role. Many had no assistance from outside agencies, and most related that caregiving entailed full-time responsibility. Many also continued in other roles such as employee, homemaker, and parent.

“…Analysing the self-care construct, Rosenbaum (1986) states that self-care is action-oriented, i.e. patients/clients ultimately have to perform self-care on their own behalf, unless they are in a dependent care situation.…”

This cross-cultural study attempted to replicate the nursing phenomena of self-care and self-concept using two self-reporting instruments. Both instruments were translated from English into Swedish and administered on a convenience basis to 187 Swedish subjects, 117 women and 70 men, ages 19-66, compulsory to university educated, and residing in the southern districts of Sweden. Swedish mean self-care scores were lower (112.5) than the United States normative group of university nursing and psychology students, but the mean was comparable to East German (113.6) reported from an earlier study. Self-concept scores were similar to Nebraska teachers and East Germans. Alpha coefficients were used to assess reliability, ANOVA for differences, and item correlation of self-care agency were organized by factor analysis with four subfactors identified. The derived subscales appeared to identify potentially useful factors to aid in unravelling the complexity of the self-care agency construct. Study limitations were addressed. Cross-cultural directives for international nursing are discussed.
