Session
Medicine and Nursing
Description
The purpose of this paper is research on the Challenge of Primary Health Care nurses in the municipality of Kaçanik.
Since the study is taking part in a certain region, the number of respondents included in this questionnaire are all Nurses who work in the MFMC in the Municipality of Kaçanik and since number of Nurses is small, the generalization of the data is not intended but it can advance to do research in other primary care centers in Kosovo. No generalizations are intended.
The nurses will answer the questions that have been prepared in the questionnaire which is adapted from WHO. The interviews will take place at the workplaces of the participants and will last between 10-15 minutes.
According to the results, it can be seen that there is a discrepancy between the knowledge and expertise of the participants described as important for providing high quality care for people with diabetes. Nurses, as facilitators of care practice who can promote sustainable change in care, need more skills to provide more specialized care related to both types of Diabetes Mellitus in practice, team management through time and systematic help. In this way, it will be possible to strengthen the pillars of primary care, and thus, develop preventive and proactive population-based care and favor patient centralization and support for self-management.
