Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Health Behavior
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: HASCV-R" Health Programme

Detailed Description

Positive health behaviors aimed at improving health refer to individuals' conscious efforts to protect and improve their own health and the health of other individuals. Examples of positive health behaviors include eating adequate and balanced nutrition, paying attention to sleep patterns, doing physical activity, staying away from stress, having regular health checks, and communicating effectively and positively with people. In order for individuals to acquire positive health behaviors, they need to have an idea about all of these behaviors and turn the knowledge they have acquired into behavior. Health professionals undoubtedly have a large share in the formation of this health awareness, as well as in the treatment of diseases, as well as in protecting health and avoiding risky health behaviors.

It is seen that in developed societies, the planning, implementation and evaluation stages of health promotion programs in health services are carried out by professional nurses. The group that will ensure the development of health, informing and guiding healthy behaviors are nurses who provide professional care in health institutions. There are training programs to improve women's health in the literature, but there is no training program that is both health-promoting and health-protective. Considering the impact of nurses on health education and creating behavioral change, their knowledge on this subject and their ability to transfer this to public health is of great importance. In addition, considering that a healthy lifestyle has become so important today, the unique value of the study is that the training program to be developed includes behaviors that promote and protect women's health. This research was planned to evaluate the effect of the "HASCV-R" training program on women's health-promoting and protective behaviors.
