Nursing theories
If ever there was a nurse who joined the profession to help others improve their lives, it was Dorothea Orem (1914-2007). Orem`s Self-care Theory of Nursing established her as a leading theorist of nursing practice and education. Orem`s theory of self-care deficits explains how nurses can and should intervene to help patients maintain autonomy. Her 1971 theory of self-care deficit is still taught today in nursing schools, and she helped shape the holistic approach nurses now take toward patient care. The theory helps nurses determine what aspects of patient care they should focus on in a given situation, and it stresses the importance to patients themselves of maintaining autonomy over their self-care processes.

Most researchers have focused on broad descriptions of trends in the use of the Internet, such as time spent using computers and the Internet and the ways in which children and adults use these technologies. Few researchers have examined the ways in which the Internet has altered family functioning.
One area of speculation is whether computer technology strengthens or damages relationships among family members. One of the earliest studies on the role of the Internet in family life monitored a group of parents and their teenagers over their first 1 to 2 years of Internet use. Parents and adolescents used the Internet more often to interact (e.g., sending and receiving e-mail) with non’household members than to seek information or entertainment
