promoting the education and training of community health nurses for working in the primary health care system and community settings | Modifying the undergraduate education system | The necessity of nursing education system's being community-based | - The individual-based undergraduate education system - Disease-based approach in the education - Not being prepared for community-based services |
“Practically, the undergraduate education system is not community-based, but is basically individual-centered, and even patient-centered, which still focuses on diseases. Not much attention is paid to the subject individual care seeker and the main focus is on the disease-based approach. When you teach someone in accordance with such a system, in my opinion, one is not prepared to offer community-based services.” |
