Description
Federica Canzan and co-authors lay out a 2026 study protocol for a nurse-led program in general practice in northern Italy. The plan targets patients aged 65 and older who live with at least one long-term condition. Family and community nurses will assess each patient, teach self-care skills, and follow up over time inside a local health home.
The study will compare patients before and after the program, tracking emergency visits and hospital stays as the main outcomes. It will also track how well patients take their drugs and use local services at 6 and 12 months. As a protocol, the paper gives the full design but no results yet, and it aims to show whether nurse-led care cuts the load of long-term illness.
