Core, Care and Cure Model

Lydia Hall developed the Core, Care and Cure nursing model in the 1960s. The model uses three interlocking circles to represent the patient's core feelings and self, the disease or cure aspect addressed by medical professionals, and the care aspect focused on by nurses in providing intimate bodily care. Hall emphasized seeing the whole patient and the interrelation between the three components of core, care, and cure in nursing practice and the patient's progress.

Core, Care and Cure Model

LYDIA HALL
Lydia Eloise Hall (September 21,1906-
Febtuary 27,1969)

 She was a nursing theorist who developed the Care, Cure and Core model of nursing.
 In 1960s, she authored 21 publications and a bulk of articles about the Loeb center and
her theories of long term care and chronic disease control. Her work was presented in
“Nursing: What is it? In the Canadian nurse.
 Hall used three interlocking circles to represents aspects of the patient and nursing
functions. The care circles represent the patient’s body, the cure circle represents the
disease that affects the patient’s physical system and the core circle represents the inner
feelings and management of the person

“The Care” of nursing
“The Cure”
 The core is the patients receiving nursing care. The core has goals set by him or herself rather by any other person,
and behaves according to his/her feelings and values.

 The cure is the attention given to patients by medical professionals. Hall explains in the model that cure circle is
shared by the nurse with the other health professionals, such as physicians or physical therapist. These are the
intervention or actions geared toward treating the patients for whatever illness or disease he/she is suffering from.

 The care circle addresses the role of nurses, and is focused on performing the task of nurturing patients. This means
the “motherly” care provided by nurses, which may include comfort measures, patient instruction, and helping the
patients meet his/her needs when help is needed.

 Hall’s theory emphasizes the total patient rather than looking at just one part and depends on all three components of
the theory working together.
Major Assumptions

 The motivation and energy necessary for healing exist within the patient, rather than in the
healthcare team.
 The three aspects of nursing should not be viewed as functioning independently but as
interrelated.
 The three aspects interact, and the circles representing them change size, depending on the
patient’s total course of progress.
 The three circles are:
 Core
 Cure
 Care
Metaparadigm of Nursing Theory
1. Person/individual
Hall emphasizes the importance of the individual as unique, capable of growth and learning, and requiring a total person
approach.
2. Health
health can be inferred to be a state of self-awareness with a conscious selection of behaviors that are optimal for that individual.
Hall stresses the need to help the person explore the meaning of his/her behavior to identify and overcome problems through
developing self-identity and maturity.
3. Environment
Deal with in the relationship of individual. Hall is credited with developing the concept of Loeb center because she assumed that
the hospital environment during treatment of acute illness creates a difficult psychological experience for the ill individual.
4. Nursing
Nursing is identified as consisting of participation in the care, core and cure aspects of patient care.
Usefulness of the Theory to Nursing
Practice, Research and Education
 Core
 Safety and security focused on protection and prevention of trauma and injury.
 Love and belongingness assessed the closeness of the patient to family and support systems.
 Self esteem is on body image and socialization
 Self actualization is based on the patient’s satisfaction in consideration to present health condition.
 Care
 Promotive
 Preventive
 Curative
 Rehabilitative
 Palliative aspects of care
 Cure
 Promote wellness and prevent illness or disability.
 Emphasize the development of healthy lifestyle and environment
 To care is to provide what man needs, and such needs must be included in the nursing process.
