Advocacy: Nurses advocate for policies and programs that support preventive care and public health initiatives. 3. Community Outreach: Nurses participate in community outreach programs to raise awareness about preventive care and provide health services to underserved populations. 4. Collaboration: Nurses collaborate with other healthcare professionals to create comprehensive care plans that include preventive measures.
