Abstract

Background: Family planning (FP) is a critical aspect of primary health care, with nurses playing a central role in providing information and services to individuals and couples. Nurses are key in promoting awareness about contraceptive methods, sexually transmitted infections, and preconception health. They also advocate for policies that enhance access to reproductive healthcare services and collaborate with other healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive care. Objective: This review aims to explore the role of nurses in delivering family planning services, understand the challenges they face in this field, investigate the impact of nurse-led programs on patient outcomes, and identify the importance of collaboration between nurses and other healthcare providers in family planning. Conclusion: Nurses are essential in providing family planning services, offering counseling, education, and contraceptive services to individuals and families. Despite facing challenges like stigma and resource limitations, nurses collaborate with healthcare providers to deliver holistic care. By advocating for policies that support access to quality services, nurses contribute to advancing family planning and empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their reproductive health. Their dedication to promoting reproductive health and rights is crucial for the well-being of individuals and communities worldwide.
