Description
Frida Gadda, Christel Sundqvist, and Anna Forsman interview school nurses in a 2026 Finnish study. School nurses anchor health care for children, and health promotion sits inside their brief. Yet how nurses themselves see their role, and where its borders lie against teachers and doctors, is little studied.
Thirteen nurses from compulsory schools spoke at length. Their answers were sorted first by surface content, then by the deeper themes beneath. Role clarity, turf, and daily habits all shaped how much health promotion actually happened. Findings point to clearer mandates and teamwork as levers for stronger school health work.
