[Public Health Nursing in Spain and Navarra throughout the present century].
The evolution of humanity over the course of history, political reforms and the reforms of the health services have brought the different professions related with health to take part in this evolution. The professionals of nursing have not remained outside this evolution, changing both their functions and their formation. With respect to the field of public health, it seems that the task developed by these professionals is sometimes overlooked and lost, which is why this article attempts to present the work realised by community nurses throughout this century, paying special attention to their development in Navarra and a proposal for the future.
