Published in the Slovenian Nursing Review (Slov Nurs Rev) are the original and review
scientific and professional articles and the news on current events in the field
of nursing, midwifery and other interdisciplinary health and social sciences. The
articles explore the developmental paradigms of the relevant fields in accordance
with their scientific, theoretical and philosophical bases, which are reflected
in the experimental and non-experimental research, qualitative studies and reviews.
The articles consider nursing and other health sciences as scientific and professional
disciplines and include the key dimensions of their development such as theoretical
concepts, models, ethics and philosophy, clinical practice, health promotion, the
development of practice and more demanding modes of health care delivery, education,
management, quality and safety, health policy and others.
The articles published in the Slovenian Nursing Review, which are interdisciplinary
oriented, significantly contribute towards the professional development of nursing,
midwifery and other health professions in Slovenia, the Balcans, and the countries
of the Central and Eastern Europe which share common characteristics of nursing
development of post-socialist countries.

publishing endorsed by the international editorial board and a critical selection
of reviewers. All published articles are available also in electronic form. Before
