“…The evidence is clear that the creation of social value within health systems leads to improved health outcomes. 7,14,34 The NPs talked about their work within PHC business as focused on social value creation and they had little or no commercial or financial motivation. It was clear that they felt most satisfied within their setting when the community members they served were provided with an equitable and high-quality service.…”

INTRODUCTIONChallenges facing the primary health-care sector mean that policymakers and clinicians need to think and act differently to move forward. The principles of social entrepreneurship have been implemented successfully for improved health outcomes in other developed nations. There is a knowledge gap around whether nurse practitioners (NPs) in New Zealand primary health care (PHC) align with these principles. AIMTo explore whether and how the innovative activities of primary care NPs can be described as socially entrepreneurial. METHODSA descriptive qualitative approach was used with data collected using semi-structured interviews with NPs working in primary care (n = 7). Data were analysed using general inductive thematic analysis techniques. RESULTSNurse practitioners interviewed worked in government-subsidised private general practice businesses. Two main themes emerged: (1) the nursing model of care aligned with social entrepreneurship; and (2) building social capital. NPs described a desire to see health care delivered differently and this aligned with acting as a social entrepreneur. Social capital emerged through the requirement to establish significant collaborative relationships. DISCUSSIONIt was found that NPs’ work can be described as socially entrepreneurial. The holistic, person and community-centred model of NP care has an ultimate mission of improved health outcomes. Social capital is built through collaborative relationships with other health-care providers, individual service users and the community. However, the juxtaposition of the business model in primary care prevents NPs from initiating and leading sustainable change.

This study aimed to determine the correlation between values and social innovation tendencies of nursing and medical students and examine the effect of values on social innovation tendencies. Method: This descriptive and correlational study consisted of 524 third-year students at nursing and medical faculties in a public university in Istanbul (response rate of 57.1%). The data of the study were collected using the information form, Portrait Values Questionnaire, and Social Innovation Scale. The data were collected between December 2015 and May 2016. The data were analyzed using descriptive and correlational analyses, and the factors affecting the score of social innovation were analyzed using linear regression analysis (backward). Results: A positive significant correlation was determined between the total scores of Portrait Values Questionnaire and Social Innovation Scale (r=0.453). The subscale mean scores of Portrait Values Questionnaire had an effect of 26.6% in total score of Social Innovation Scale. In the regression model where significance was determined (F=37.566; p<0.01), the highest effect was observed in the subscale of universalism. Conclusion:The value of universalism affected the social innovation for both groups at the most, which is an expected result by the nature of these occupations. The value of openness to innovation including self-direction and stimulation in medical students had a significant effect on the total score of social innovation, which is compatible with innovative behavior literature. These results are expected to guide educators and managers in developing socially innovative behaviors.

“…Entrepreneurial Nursing/health care empowered by the active and responsible participation of different social actors is an important strategy for the exercise of citizenship, social development and the achievement of a more dignified and healthy life for all. The more we advance in the construction of knowledge and practices in the perspective of social entrepreneurship, the better we can contribute to the advancement of nursing science and the development of public policies consistent with real needs, especially in contexts of greater social vulnerability (7,10) .…”

“…The perception that through entrepreneurial care, nurses can contribute to sustainable social development related to expanded opportunities and real possibilities of individuals, families and communities, is no longer a challenge, but a prospective appeal for the advance of nursing science. Nurses assume a proactive role in identifying the care needs of the population, and in promoting and protecting individuals' health in their different dimensions (7)(8) .…”

Objectives: to identify emancipatory strategies to strengthen the social protagonism of recyclable materials collectors in the light of entrepreneurial Nursing care. Methods: qualitative study carried out in two stages: field approach from healthcare interventions in a Recycling Materials Association, and individual interviews conducted between October and December 2018. Results: the analysis resulted in three thematic categories: Social contribution of recyclable materials collectors; From the assistentialist perception to entrepreneurial Nursing care; Emancipatory strategies of recycling work. Final Considerations: the emancipatory strategies to strengthen the social protagonism of recyclable materials collectors in the light of entrepreneurial Nursing care are related to the appreciation, recognition and enhancement of social work that has been already performed by these professionals, and to the creation of spaces for the socialization of experiences, expectations and perspectives.
