چکیده

Tuberkulose is een van die grootste gesondheidsprobleme in Suid-Afrika. As primêre gesondheidswerker speel die ver­ pleegkundige onder andere ’n belangrike rol in alle fasette van tuberkulosesorg. ’n Honderd geregistreerde verpleegkundiges in die Ga-rankuwa-omgewing is gevra om ’n eenvoudige vraelys oor tu­ berkulose in te vul om hulle vlak van kennis te toets. Die gemiddeld van 70 % wat behaal is, is goed, maar wat van dié wat onder die gemiddelde presteer het? Met ’n belangrike taak soos die uitwissing van tuberkulose moet alle verpleeg­ kundiges wat met tuberkulose pasiënte in aanraking kom oor toereikende kennis beskik. ’n Omvattende indiensopleidingsprogram, wat deur die werkgewer aangebied word, word voorgestel sodat elke ver­ pleegkundige ten voile kan funksioneer op die gebied van tuberkulose.
