[Fostering compliance by understanding its mechanisms]. / Comprendre les mécanismes de l'observance pour la favoriser.

In the context of chronic disease, nurses play an essential role in the long-term support of the patient. The therapeutic alliance which they create with the patient enables them to detect the various factors which influence compliance, or on the contrary, the non-compliance of the patient. They work in a context of interdisciplinarity in a collaborative practice in which the patient is a partner. Their interventions aim to support the patient in adopting the right health strategies.

The coordination between nursing diagnoses and the educational diagnosis still remains a difficult task. The educational approach arises from clinical reasoning derived from the caregiving approach. In collaboration with the team, the nurse analyses the data collected, makes nursing diagnoses and then shares with the patient care objectives and educational objectives.
