Nuria Esandi Larramendi, PhD, MSC, RN, is lecturer of Older People Nursing and Family Nursing at the Faculty of Nursing, Department Nursing Care for Older Adults, University of Navarra, Spain. She is also an investigator at the Navarra Institute for Health Research (IdiSNA).
The philosophy that underpins Dr. Esandi’s research and teaching is that family-centred care is essential for the promotion of health and wellbeing of older adults and their families. The primary focus of her program of research is the family experience of living with chronic illness, with special emphasis on the early stage of Alzheimer`s disease. In her research, she seeks to learn from families how nurses can provide the resources and support their need to “keep family balance” while carrying out long term care activities.
