Background: Spanish primary care services are managed differently by each region's authorities. Catalonia started its services provision and design nearly two decades before other Spanish regions and developed nurses' roles and task shifting in primary care.
Purpose: This work identifies differences in the Europe PRICOV-19 study answers between Catalonia and those submitted from the rest of Spain regarding how primary care teams (PCT) were organised during the SARS-CoV-2-2019 pandemic, how tasks and roles changed, and the pandemic's impact on the care providers.
Article Synopsis
- Primary Health Care (PHC) in Spain played a crucial role in managing COVID-19 by organizing practices that ensured quality and safety, with variations based on regional prevalence of the virus.
- A study involving 266 Primary Care Providers (PCPs) highlighted that most were in high prevalence areas, primarily serving elderly and chronic patients, yet structural differences across regions were minimal.
- The findings indicated greater use of remote services and administrative support in high prevalence regions, but most PCPs felt government support was insufficient, leading to delays in care for urgent conditions.
Objective: The catalan primary care (PC) management model is differentiated from the rest of regional autonomies because it has a greater diversity of providers The objective was to explore and compare management models according to the primary care provider in Catalonia based on the professionals' vision.
