Abstract
For the needs of this research, were used reports from the services for polyvalent patronage in the
municipalities of Berovo and Pehcevo. The survey contains data for the period from January 2013 to December
2017. The results are based on completed samples by the experts from the patronage services at the Health Care
Houses of both municipalities.
According to the survey data, the nurse had the greatest engagement when visiting births and lactating women,
newborns and infants. Advice related to proper care and nutrition in the infant period is given and it is recorded that
the outcome is based on the level of education and the socio-economic status of the family.
Various interventions have been carried out, most of which are interventions related to proper breastfeeding, infant
bath, navel care, getting familiar with the immunization calendar and general care for the mother and the child. Of
the other visits, the bulk of the visits are for visits to chronic patients with blood pressure measurements, glicemia,
dressings were made, tips for preventing decubitus and application of ampoule therapy.
After observing the results of the conducted research, it is evident that the role of the nurse in the education of
patients is of great importance. Her impact is on the prevention, treatment and final outcome of the disease. Taking
into account the distance of the municipalities in which the research from the larger medical centers is carried out, it
further enhances the importance and influence of the patronage nurse. In most cases it is the only link that connects
the patient with the health system and plays a key role in the overall treatment of the patient.
For these reasons it is very important that the patronage nurse, apart from the primary medical education, be further
educated and up to date with all the novelties and techniques in the respective field. By visiting seminars, workshops
and trainings her knowledge and professional development will be supplemented. In the municipalities of Berovo
and Pehcevo there are two teams with five patronage nurses and they are in service to a population of 15 000
inhabitants.
Although the scope of work of the patronage nurse is large, taking into account the trend of depopulation of the
population in this region, the current number of healthcare workers
