Abstract

This article elucidates nursing practice through two unique theories: Orem’s self care theory (1971) and Callista Roys’s adaptation model (1970). The key similarities and differences between Orem’s theory and Roy’s Model are identified. Nursing is an evolving and unique profession for which theory can be utilize as a guide for practice. This article demonstrates two of these nursing theories through the four concepts of the nursing meta-paradigms which consist of person, health, environment, and nursing. Moreover, these two theories are compared through its application from the perspective of clinical practice.
