sjuksköterskebaserade

Sjuksköterskebaserade refers to a model of healthcare delivery where registered nurses play a central and often expanded role in patient care, decision-making, and management. This approach emphasizes the utilization of the nurse's expertise and skills beyond traditional tasks. In a sjuksköterskebaserade model, nurses may be responsible for initial patient assessments, diagnosis of common conditions, prescribing certain medications, and developing comprehensive care plans. They often work more autonomously than in conventional settings, acting as primary care providers for specific patient populations or managing chronic conditions.

The implementation of sjuksköterskebaserade care aims to improve patient access to healthcare, enhance the efficiency of services, and potentially reduce healthcare costs. By leveraging the skills of nurses, this model can free up physician time for more complex cases. Patients often benefit from the continuity of care provided by a dedicated nurse who understands their health history and needs. This model is particularly prevalent in certain European countries, where nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists have well-established roles. The scope of practice for nurses in these settings is typically defined by specific regulations and advanced training programs. Successful implementation requires clear protocols, interprofessional collaboration, and ongoing professional development for the nursing staff.
