ConclusionsThe application of Orem's self-care model is effective in improving SCA, self-care, and QoL, and this study provides evidence of the benefits of its use in the nursing care of patients with SLE in a community setting. Health care providers should incorporate Orem's self-care model in nursing care to enhance SCA, self-care, and QoL in patients with SLE.
