| dc.description.abstract | Nurses play a vital role in public healthcare worldwide. They are a significant part of medical institutions, often being the first and primary point of contact for patients. Given the global shortage of healthcare workers, nurses should be recognized as a valuable resource to provide accessible, affordable, and effective care. The nursing profession is not only large but also socially significant, with rational utilization of nursing staff leading to improved healthcare availability, quality, and cost-effectiveness. Reforms in nursing highlight their increasing role in organizing preventive, therapeutic, and diagnostic measures across all levels of healthcare, including disease prevention and health screenings. Nurses can support education and awareness campaigns, promote healthy choices, and contribute to creating environments conducive to physical activity. Promoting medical and hygienic knowledge among the population has proven to be highly effective in reducing illness and mortality rates, as well as fostering a healthy generation. Prophylactic education is a powerful tool for public health improvement.
