distriktssköterskans

Distriktssköterskans, also known as district nurses, are healthcare professionals who provide care and support to patients in their own homes or in community settings. They work under the supervision of a registered nurse or a doctor and are responsible for assessing patients' needs, developing care plans, and implementing treatments. District nurses often specialize in specific areas such as wound care, diabetes management, or palliative care. They play a crucial role in promoting independence and well-being among patients, helping them to manage chronic conditions and recover from illnesses. Distriktssköterskans work closely with other healthcare professionals, such as general practitioners and specialists, to ensure coordinated and comprehensive care. Their services are funded by the Swedish healthcare system and are available to all residents in Sweden.
