Nursing Students As Health Professionals

  Students seeking degrees in healthcare in Ecuador participate in community improvement projects and supply free health services under the supervision of college health professionals. Although the agricultural health practice of scholars in service-based learning courses is believed to enhance the standard of life in these communities, empirical evidence has yet to be established. Much research exists that assesses the tutorial and professional benefits of rural medical service for the provider ; however there's a startling lack of investigation on the consequences of such programs on the recipient population. A handful of studies in high-income countries undertake a qualitative approach to explain the advantages of service-based learning for the recipient population, reporting that nursing students have the potential to effectively fill service gaps and can improve health-related behaviours in underserved populations One study quantitatively analysed the impact of interprofessional teams of students, finding that a student-based home visitation program effectively increased preventive health measures among recipient households . The results of these studies are encouraging; however, no studies have been conducted to-date that assess the impact of nursing student home visits on the health outcomes of a rural population in a low- or middle-income country. Nursing students completing their rural service rotation have the potential to enhance the health-related quality of lifetime of rural residents in Ecuador.
