The practical knowledge that nurses employ to help people who cannot care for themselves maintain their daily activities comes from science. Self-care is engaged in the pursuit of behavioral outcomes to regulate human functions, such as knowledge of the balance of bodily fluids to meet self-care requirements (Denyes 2001). Furthermore, Orem (1980, p. 14) insists that nurses continue to practice and acquire scientific knowledge to practice their profession. Orem (1980, p. 6) believes that nursing is a human service, a necessary action to overcome human limitations. The philosophy underlying nursing actions is humanism. Based on these values, its self-care framework was established to explore the philosophy of nursing (art), what nursing is, why people need nursing care and what goals nursing wants to achieve.
