Abstract :

Primary care nurses are progressively being included into the central structure of interprofessional primary care teams. In summary, the results indicate that primary care nurses have a significant influence on the provision of high-quality primary care. Furthermore, nurse-led care has the potential to supplement and improve the primary care services provided by other healthcare professionals. Nurses are capable of delivering suitable and excellent primary care services, which encompass prescription administration, patient assessment and prioritization, prevention and management of chronic diseases, treatment of sudden illnesses/conditions, educational interventions, health promotion, and management interventions. There is a need to allocate more resources towards assessing the impact of this distinct position in primary care, in order to enhance and fortify the provision of patient-centered care. The findings of this analysis can provide valuable insights for enhancing the integration and optimization of this position. They are relevant to researchers and other stakeholders involved in primary care initiatives, and can aid in future assessments and the creation of more streamlined primary care services.
