Abstract

The study aimed at analyzing the Self-Care Deficit Theory adjustment, focusing on the atmosphere and the home care provider. Authors adopted the Barnum's model that suggests questions on the use of its concepts, seeking for its interrelations and scope. The answers to those questions were based on the Self-Care Deficit Theory applied to a real situation, observed in home care visits occurred in the second semester of 2000 to a paraplegic patient, whose care was provided by this wife and the family health nursing team. Authors found minimal adjustment conditions for home care, considering the environment and the care providers. They considered, comparatively, that the chosen theory may be directed to the care of patients in home hospitalization under the supervision of a nurse.
