The Master's Degree in Specialized Nursing Sciences in Primary Care and Family and Community Nursing is a two-year program designed to train professionals with advanced skills in caring for individuals, families, and communities in local and local settings. The program is characterized by an approach geared toward advanced clinical practice in primary care, with particular attention to chronic conditions, frailty, care transitions, and the integration of palliative care into care pathways.

The program integrates clinical, educational, ethical, organizational, and research skills, enhancing a multi-professional approach, continuity between hospital and community, the use of scientific evidence, and the development of innovative care models. The program includes teaching activities, workshops, active methodologies, and a 30-credit professional internship, completed in qualified primary care settings, community services, and care networks.

The graduate profile is that of a nurse specialist in primary care and family and community nursing, a professional responsible for managing nursing processes for individuals, families, and communities in various local contexts. Graduates are equipped to assume clinical and professional leadership roles in needs assessment, intervention planning, care pathway management, and outcome evaluation.

The program prepares professionals capable of working independently and responsibly in primary care services, promoting self-care and health education, supporting families and caregivers, contributing to case management and continuity of care, collaborating in the design of community networks, and participating in the development of nursing practice through research, training, consulting, and innovation.

Graduates can practice their professional activity in National Health Service facilities, public and private bodies, health, social health, territorial and community services, as well as in training and research contexts consistent with the evolution of primary care models.

The program aims to train graduates capable of analyzing and interpreting the health needs of individuals, families, and communities across the health-illness continuum, designing care, education, and preventive interventions in primary care and family and community nursing settings.
