By definition, community-based nursing is a setting-specific practice in which care is provided for ―sick‖

care and the provision of comprehensive, coordinated, and continuous care. These nurses may be
generałists or speciałists in maternał–infant, pediatric, adułt, or psychiatric mentał heałth nursing.
