La educación contínua en enfermería de salud pública / Continuing education in public health nursing

ABSTRACT

If nurses are to keept abreast of the medical care and medical aid programs in national, regional or local health institutions and agencies continuing education in health is necessary. It enables them to keep up to date with changes and advances, and is the responsibility not only of the nurses themselves but also in large measure of the institutions in which they work, since that is where new knowledge can be provided and attendance at workshops, seminars, and training courses can be encouraged
