Abstract

Following the Revolution of 1959, Fidel Castro declared healthcare a right for all Cuban citizens. In 1983 a pilot project was established which paired a family doctor and nurse to care for all persons within a neighborhood. The success of this project led to the establishment of the family doctor-nurse partnership to care for all Cuban citizens. Working together, the pair provided direct care, health assessment, risk management, and health promotion for a specified neighborhood. This novel way of providing primary care provides each Cuban with a family doctor and nurse. This arrangement has helped change the health of a nation.

家庭医生和护士:古巴医疗保健的动态二人组

1959年革命后，菲德尔·卡斯特罗宣布医疗保健是所有古巴公民的权利。1983年建立了一个试点项目，由一名家庭医生和一名护士配对照顾一个社区内的所有人。这个项目的成功导致了家庭医生-护士伙伴关系的建立，以照顾所有古巴公民。双方共同努力，为特定社区提供直接护理、健康评估、风险管理和健康促进。这种提供初级保健的新颖方式为每个古巴人提供了一名家庭医生和护士。这种安排有助于改变一个国家的健康状况。
