Michael Foucault understood the art of living (French art de vivre, Latin ars vivendi) and the care of self (French le souci de soi) to be central to philosophy. The third volume of his three-volume study The History of Sexuality is dedicated to this notion. For Foucault, the notion of care of self (epimeleia heautou) of Ancient Greek and Roman philosophy comprises an attitude towards the self, others and the world, as well as a certain form of attention. For Foucault, the pursuit of the care for one's own well-being also comprises self-knowledge (gnōthi seauton).[13][14] The self-care deficit nursing theory was developed by Dorothea Orem between 1959 and 2001. The positively-viewed theory explores the use professional care and an orientation towards resources.[3] Under Orem's model self care has limits when its possibilities have been exhausted therefore making professional care legitimate. These deficits in self care are seen as shaping the best role a nurse may provide. There are two phases in Orem's self care; the investigative and decision-making phase and the production phase.[15] |
