“…The authors hypothesized that this finding was attributable to "low decision latitude and organizational factors" (Al-Kandari & Thomas, 2008). Peer pressure, disapproval from family members, and shift rotation requirements contribute to the negative perception of nursing as a profession (Al-Kandari & Thomas, 2009).…”

The centrality of the value altruism to nursing care from the Islamic perspective and the apparent seamless integration of care of the spirit with care of the body were significant findings consistent with the literature. The deep longing to be better understood, both as nurses and as Muslims, speaks to needed public education across the spectrum of religious belief and needed strengthening of professional kinship.

“…Furthermore, the nursing profession in Kuwait is not attractive to Kuwaiti nationals [23] as a result of the uncertainty of the role, lack of clarity about the role, and limited support from the public for the profession. The World Health Organization identified the human health resource profile in Kuwait as 11% Kuwaiti nurses and 40% Kuwaiti doctors (WHO 2011) [24].…”

The role of nurses in diabetes care in Kuwait has changed remarkably as a result of the increase of the care burden caused by the incidence of long-term diabetic patients. Nurses working in diabetes care play significant roles that are comparable to other health care providers working in diabetes clinics and centres in Kuwait.While nurses' roles in diabetes have been clearly established in other parts of the world, nurses' role in Kuwait are neither fully recognised nor professionally acknowledged. The nurses caring for such patients do not have a special identifying title, or a clear job description that specifies their critical role in diabetes care. This review investigated the Kuwait nurses' roles in diabetes care and how the performance of their duties affects the perceived quality of the nursing care provided to their diabetic patients.The significance of this review is that it provides an insight into the possibility of developing a new system of diabetes patient care that could result in patients accessing good quality care. By investigating patients' and nurses' perspectives, this study seeks to provide an in-depth understanding of the influence of the quality of nursing care in managing diabetic patients in Kuwait.
