Background: The use of evidence-based clinical nursing guidelines can be an important
resource to provide high-quality patient care and to improve patient outcomes. However,
evidence-based clinical guidelines for nursing have not been unanimously positive,
although the attitude of nurses in recent years has been mostly positive.
Purpose: Describe the attitudes and expectations of primary health care nurses towards
new clinical nursing guidelines for the collection of valuable information for further
development of an implementation plan of clinical nursing guidelines in Kazakhstan.
Design: Qualitative research approach was applied in the study. Thirty participants took
part in the study.
Methods: Four focus group interviews and two individual interviews were conducted. Data
were analyzed by using the inductive content analysis method.
Results: Generally, the nurses had a positive attitude with positive expectations. However,
nurses experienced barriers, such as the poor knowledge of nurses and low motivation of
health care professionals towards the new clinical nursing guidelines.
Сonclusion: The positive attitude of the nurses showed the readiness of nurses to adapt to
the new clinical nursing guidelines in primary health care. Nevertheless, nurses also had
negative attitudes due to negative expectations. Therefore, it is recommended to use
multifaceted strategies aimed at existing barriers and other influencing factors for the
successful implementation of clinical nursing guidelines into primary health care.
