Abstract

Health inequalities in rural areas remain a significant global concern, characterized by high rates of chronic diseases and limited access to healthcare. Community-based nursing has emerged as a crucial approach to address these disparities by providing culturally competent and accessible care tailored to the needs of rural populations. This study highlights the role of community-based nurses as both care providers and advocates, demonstrating that their interventions can enhance health access, improve health literacy, and address social determinants of health, ultimately contributing to greater health equity and better health outcomes in underserved communities.
