Abstract
The objective of this study is to apply one of the theories taught at training institutions to teenage families in the community health practice and to develop a strategy to make such application acceptable to nurses. Orem's self-care deficiency theory was consequently applied to case studies at a community clinic of a Municipal Health Department. Personal interviews were mainly used as research technique to identify problems, determine needs and address self-care deficiencies. Data was evaluated according to UNICEF' s GOBI FFFF, the 11PKK" 's five concepts, the nursing process and OREM's Constructs. Evaluation has proved that Orem's theory offers an instrument to evaluate self-care abilities and guide the nurse in identifying deficiencies and planning nursing care in order to reduce multidisciplinary consultation, which results in professional nurses being employed appropriately, resources being utilised to the maximum and each individual developing into a complete self-care agent.
