 Theory developed in late 1960’s

interlocking levels

 Core = Using self in relationship to patient
 Cure = The disease: applying medical

knowledge

 Patient care only from trained nurses
 Defines nursing as care performed by a

professional
 Care focused on individuals, families and

communities
 Care focused on maintaining optimal health

and quality life from birth to end of life

teaching

Major Ideas of theory
 Three interlocking circles representing one
aspect of nursing
 Only nursing is defined as the function

necessary to carry out care, core and cure


 Philosophical view of humans having energy

and motivation for self-awareness and


growth
 Definitions of health and society must be

inferred

 Halls
theory is applicable to each phase of the
nursing process.

 Limitationsof the theory….. Can be overcome


by taking a broader view of each aspect of
care, core and cure.

 Wasnot pleased with concept of “team


nursing”
