RESUMEN
El/la enfermero/a de familia y comunitaria es el profesional que a través de una mirada integral y holística asume la misión de acompañar a las personas desde su nacimiento hasta la muerte para desarrollar su potencial de salud, promocionando los diferentes entornos familiares, laborales y sociales para facilitar dicho desarrollo. A lo largo de la historia, diversos organismos de ámbito internacional, europeo y nacional, han ido regulando la figura de estos profesionales de enfermería de familia y comunitaria, hasta la fecha actual, donde existe normativa que regula de pleno derecho sus funciones, atribuciones y desempeño profesional. El personal de enfermería de familia y comunitaria puede dar respuestas a las necesidades de una población cambiante, y que asume nuevas responsabilidades en la gestión y la investigación. Sus amplias competencias básicas y avanzadas recogidas en un riguroso programa formativo suponen una mejora para el sistema sanitario, la profesión enfermera y la ciudadanía y la comunidad en la que vive. Aún existen muchos retos para que cada Consejería de Salud de cada comunidad haga posible que esta especialidad desarrolle todo su potencial de mejora de los cuidados
It is the mission of the Community and Family Nurse through an integral and holistic approach to accompany people from cradle to death in developing their health potential, and promote different family, work and social environments to facilitate this development. Throughout history, various international, European and national organizations have regulated the figure of the Community and Family Nurse, and now their functions, powers and professional performance are fully regulated. The Community and Family Nurse can respond to the needs of a changing population and take on new responsibilities in management and research. Their extensive basic and advanced skills gathered under a rigorous training programme, benefit the health system, the nursing profession, citizenry and its communities. Many challenges remain for the Health Departments of each Autonomous Region to make it possible for this specialty to develop its full potential for improving care
