How does nurse-led education influence patient adherence to treatment plans?
Nurse-led education enhances patient adherence to treatment plans through evidence-based strategies, including personalized care plans, trust-building communication, and barrier mitigation. Rooted in Social Cognitive Theory and interdisciplinary collaboration, nurses address socioeconomic barriers, cultural challenges, and chronic disease management using telehealth tools and AI-driven education. Proven outcomes include 18-35% fewer hospital readmissions, improved self-efficacy, and reduced healthcare costs. Culturally competent interventions and habit-forming reinforcement ensure long-term adherence, positioning nurse-driven programs as vital for equitable health outcomes.
