Impact on Health, Resources, and Satisfaction: A Qualitative Study of Primary Health Care Case-Management Nurses
The findings suggest that the practice of CMNs in primary care improves the health and quality of life of patients and their caregivers while reducing healthcare resource utilization. CMNs reported high levels of job satisfaction. These findings support the implementation of this care model to optimize the management of chronic patients in home and residential care settings. However, larger-scale quantitative studies are needed to confirm these results and explore their generalizability.
