Expanding Frontiers in Self-Care

Interdisciplinary Journal of Nursing and Health (eISSN: 3103-537X) is a continuation of Infermieristica Journal (eISSN 2785-7018).

Interdisciplinary Journal of Nursing and Health (IJNH) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access scientific journal dedicated to advancing rigorous and globally relevant scholarship in nursing and health sciences. Interdisciplinary Journal of Nursing and Health promotes the development, integration, and exchange of knowledge that informs nursing research, clinical practice, and health policy. The journal supports evidence-based practice and fosters critical debate on contemporary issues related to the art and science of nursing. IJNH particularly welcomes studies that seek to evaluate and understand complex health care interventions, health systems, and health policies, using the most rigorous and appropriate research designs. The journal also aims to strengthen the methodological quality of health research by publishing high-quality methodological papers that introduce or refine analytic approaches, measurements, or research methods. All submissions undergo double-anonymized peer review, and IJNH publishes original contributions of relevance to the international health care community. IJNH is a fully open-access journal, accessible to readers worldwide without subscription or publication fees. The journal is published in English.
