The most critical intervention of nurses in the management of chronic diseases is through the equipping of patients with skills, knowledge, and confidence to take responsibility for the lifelong conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. Such interventions improve the self-management capabilities of patients, reduce complications, and decrease health strain. Targeted education provided particularly to low resource settings can empower populations as well as reduce disparities. In addition, nurse-led education addresses the psychological challenge and empowered the patient. It improves adherence to medication and lifestyle alterations. This paper reviews the implications of nurse-led education on the management of chronic diseases, providing emphasis on benefits, challenges, and implications for healthcare systems.
