Then we evaluated and compared their initiative and core competence respectively at the begin and the end of one year′s Orem self-care theory practice in Psychiatric Ward. Results The initial score of initiative was (23. 43+2. 25) and the score of core competence was (131. 43 ± 7. 19) before the practice of Orem self-care theory. While the score of initiative was (30. 17 ± 2. 26), the score of core competence was (150. 80 ± 6. 73) after 1 year′s the practice of Orem self-care theory (P<0. 01).
