dc.description.abstract | Background: The number of patients with Continuous Ambulatory
Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) and the number of active CAPD patients in
South Sulawesi is very far from the proportions. This problem is
compounded by the lack of registered CAPD nurses.
Purposes: To assess efforts to enrich the competency of Homecare Nurses
related to CAPD patients at home using the Community Nursing approach.
Method: This study used Document review, quantitative design by
conducting a search, identifying key words, reviewing articles and
documenting the results.The review was carried out within the frame of
Content Analysis, by emphasizing the role of basic CAPD training on
methods, benefits and strategies. The documents were collected from various
sources, including from the Ministry of Health, BPPSDMK, IRR, IPDI and
journals from 2016 to February 2021. It was supported by an analytical
survey of 81 respondents of nurses, taken online in social media.
Result: Out of 25 documents reviewed, 20 (80%) were related to the study,
14 journals (56%) were in English. The results demonstrate the
recommendation of Homecare nurses to be involved in CAPD nursing. This
is also supported by the survey finding where 79 respondents (98.5%)
agreed with CAPD basic training to improve HC nurse’s competency. While
Homecare services have weaknesses, policy makers are significantly needed
in the implementation of the program. | id_ID |
