Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Primary Health Care Nursing
  • Healthcare Education

Background:

  • Growing elderly populations necessitate enhanced care coordination.
  • Primary health care (PHC) nurses are key to implementing comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA).
  • Limited research exists on European nurses' experiences and educational needs regarding CGA.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore PHC nurses' experiences with CGA implementation.
  • To identify challenges faced by nurses in delivering CGA.
  • To determine educational needs for effective CGA in diverse European settings.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study design utilizing focus groups across five European countries (Greece, Iceland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia).
  • Semi-structured interviews with 29 PHC nurses.
  • Reflexive thematic analysis of collected data.

Main Results:

  • Nurses embrace holistic assessment complexity and value structured learning for professional growth.
  • Key practices include standardized tools and multidisciplinary collaboration.
  • Barriers include educational gaps, resource limitations, and insufficient cultural competence training.

Conclusions:

  • PHC nurses acknowledge CGA's importance but require improved educational pathways and practical training.
  • Curricula should focus on interprofessional collaboration, practical skills, and adaptability.
  • Enhanced training can support sustainable CGA implementation in European primary care.
