Abstract

At the Doctoral Health Centre, belonging to the Gran Canaria Healthcare Area, six Primary Care nurses were in charge of meeting the requirements of the 133 families included in the National Seroprevalence Study (ENECOVID) conducted by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III and the Ministry of Health. During the three stages of the study discussed in this article, 702 participants were managed in total. In the first stage, 203 persons were evaluated, 251 in the second, and 248 in the third stage. The majority of participants were adult, and the total number of children included was 84. There was equal participation by gender (50% men and 50% women). In order to provide an adequate response to the study, a circuit was created within the centre, with entry, waiting, and information points for participants, where the objective and the dynamics of the study were explained to them, and they completed their informed consent forms before having access to the relevant consultations. The experience of nurses in the ENECOVID research resulted in the cohesion of the work team, improved the skills regarding the management of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, increased safety at the time of using individual protection equipment, and had a positive impact on the ability to address a great volume of participants without reducing the quality of care.
