Abstract:
Objective To survey the working situation of community nurses and care needs of the residents in a prefecture-level city.Method One hundred and thirty-five community nurses and 338 residents were selected and investigated by self-designed questionnaire.Results Community nurses still focused on the area of nursing and treatment rather than prevention,rehabilitation, health care,health education and family planning,which need to be paid more attention to.The needs of residents on community nursing service shift from disease treatment to disease prevention and health promotion.The current community nursing service cannot satisfy residents’care needs.Conclusion Community nurses should provide demand-oriented community care to the residents, strengthen the concept of disease prevention and health promotion,and set up community health centers to be a blend of prevention, health care,rehabilitation,health education and family planning as soon as possible.
