Abstract
A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews explored seven individuals' perspectives of their hospital self-care instruction and their ability to do self-care at home. The secondary themes that emerged from the study include: individuals' self-care experiences in the hospital, their ability to perform self-care at home and the role of motivation in their ability to perform self-care. These were directly related and supported the primary theme, which was individuals' loss of their place in life following hospitalization. The findings provide needed insight regarding whether the manner in which self-care is taught in the hospital generalizes and affects individuals' ability to perform self-care at home.
