Liver cirrhosis is an important health problem that leads to morbidity and mortality. Severe complications are seen due to its ineffective management. Failure to meet the educational needs of patients with liver cirrhosis, inadequate self-care practices in disease management and frequent recurrence of life-threatening complications indicate the need for sustainable hepatic rehabilitation programmes. To provide hepatic rehabilitation, it is necessary to prepare comprehensive, accessible and sustainable patient education programmes, increase the patients' activation in self-care practices and interpret the results of self-care practices, as well as practice and manage complications accordingly. Using accessible and sustainable technology tools may help to provide hepatic rehabilitation and increase patients' activation in their disease management. This review paper was conducted to explain the nursing roles in the hepatic rehabilitation of patients with liver cirrhosis. It is recommended that the hepatic rehabilitation programme should be developed by nurses to maintain the care of patients with liver cirrhosis.
