The delivery of Primary Health Care in remote communities: A Grounded Theory study of the perspective of nurses

Abstract

This study describes the substantive theory: making compromises to provide Primary Health care services in the remote Australian setting. Understanding the process of making compromises could direct employers and educators in their efforts to improve the provision of Primary Health Care in a variety of settings. Increased attention to the education, resources and support of nurses is likely to increase access to safe, quality care for remote communities.
