For several years, the Disability Creation Process (DCP) model has governed rehabilitation settings in Quebec. In a perspective of humanizing care, the philosophy of “human caring” was established as a nursing model at a rehabilitation center in this province. Are these two models of practice compatible? Can we construct a common integrator model? With the aim of continually improving the quality of the services received by people in rehabilitation, this article develops a “Caring” DCP model that could bring together two perspectives that are often separated, care and rehabilitation.
