Ophthalmic nurses are well-prepared and satisfied with their involvement in glaucoma care decision-making. These findings support the implementation of shared care models for managing glaucoma patients effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Nursing
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Glaucoma management requires a multidisciplinary approach.
  • Shared care models aim to optimize patient outcomes by distributing responsibilities among healthcare professionals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the extent of ophthalmic nurses' involvement in glaucoma care decision-making.
  • To evaluate nurses' preparedness and satisfaction with these tasks.
  • To explore the potential for shared care in glaucoma management.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire survey was distributed to ophthalmic nurses across 13 diverse eye clinics in Sweden.
  • Data were collected on nurses' task involvement, preparedness, and satisfaction levels.

Main Results:

  • Significant variations in nurse-led task performance were observed between clinics.
  • A strong positive correlation exists between nurses' participation levels and job satisfaction (p=0.008).
  • Nurses reported high levels of preparedness (61/62) and satisfaction (58/62) in performing glaucoma management tasks, with a significant correlation between preparedness and satisfaction (r=0.96, p=0.0001).

Conclusions:

  • Ophthalmic nurses feel adequately prepared and express high satisfaction with their roles in glaucoma care.
  • The findings provide strong support for the feasibility and benefits of shared care models in glaucoma management.
