Nursing care for hospitalised adolescents should be based on a thorough knowledge of their normal development while supporting and maintaining healthy growth, despite the impact of a disruptive illness.

Adolescents have the right to be involved in decisions about all aspects of their care. This article explores the benefits of Orem's model of nursing in the care of this group
