EuropeaN curriculum for fAmily aNd Community nursE

Description

<< Background >>Family and Community Nurse (FCN) is identified as a key actor in the new Primary Health Care (PHC) models. Despite this, no standardized Professional Profile nor training path are defined at EU level. ENhANCE targeted an existing mismatch between the skills offered by nurses working in PHC and those actually demanded by the health care sector. To be noted that the recent pandemic has made even more evident the (already existing) need of FCNs, to decentralize our PHC on the territory.<< Objectives >>Main objective was to increase the specialization level of nurses working in PHC regarding Family and Community Nursing skills. Moreover, the project aimed to foster the development of FCN curricula based on a formalized EU profile drawing on WHO and EU recommendations. Ultimately, the goal was to enhance the shift from old PHC models to new ones.<< Implementation >>Implementation encompassed the development of:- A EU Professional Profile for FCN - A EU Curriculum for FCN - Guidelines supporting VET designers and teachers to design effective training for FCNs- An Open Online Tool supporting practice sharing for FCNs- A European e-learning for VET teachers in the field of nursing- Free Open Contents targeting VET teachers - Design documents of 3 localized curricula in Italy, Finland and Greece. - 3 pilot courses in Italy, Finland and Greece.<< Results >>- 150 graduate nurses were trained according to the EU Curriculum and became FCNs; more than 30 already got employed. Others will be employed soon- Nurse professional associations and Regulatory bodies across Europe can benefit from the EU Professional Profile for recognition and mobility of the profession - VET providers and teachers acrosso Europe can offer innovative and standardized training for FCNs
