Abstract
Public health nurses in Quebec are essential although little is known about their role. Generally trained at the undergraduate level, with additional qualifications in community health, they essentially work in CLSCs in maternal and child health programs, youth clinics or occupational health. In regional public health departments, they also work in the field of infectious disease prevention or other programs. Like their colleagues, they are confronted to the profession's challenges, the most notable being current and future shortage of nurses. However, they can now count on a new. As nurses further develop their practice and orient it even more towards primary prevention and health promotion, they will significantly contribute to the National Public Health Program and to the improvement of population health and wellbeing.
