Abstract     Neurologic patients have various brain damages and therefore have to be treated and rehabilitated by entire health team which, besides physician specialist and nursing team, includes also physiotherapist, work therapeut, speech therapist, psychologist and social worker. Their collaboration is not only wished for, but is of key importance. Good collaboration is obtained by constant mutual communication (team meetings). The role of nurse is defined for patients with cerebrovascular diseases, including also stroke. These diseases are most frequent of all neurologic diseases in adults and neurological problems in such patients are most varied. Owing to the complexity and and extensiveness of their problems, these patients show also many nursing problems (unability of self-care, difficulties with movement and walk, difficulties with bladder and bowel emptying, decubitus, impeded expressing of emotions and communicating, impeded nourishing). Entire health team is striving to achieve common aim, i.e. to obtain an optimal capacity of self-care, thus also of independence at performing of daily activities of the patient/protegee.
Summary     Nevrološki bolniki imajo raznolike okvare, zato mora pri njihovem zdravljenju in rehabilitaciji sodelovati celotni zdravstveni tim, v katerega sodijo poleg zdravnika specialista in negovalnega tima še fizioterapevt, delovni terapevt, logoped, psiholog in socialni delavec. Sodelovanje med njimi ni samo zaželeno, temveč je kjučnega pomena. Dobro sodelovanje dosežemo s stalnim medsebojnim komuniciranjem (timski sestanki). Ker so cerebrovaskularne bolezni, med katere uvrščamo tudi možgansko kap, najpogostejše od vseh nevroloških bolezni v odrasli dobi in ker imajo ti bolniki tudi največ raznolikih nevroloških težav, sem vlogo medicinske sestre opredelila pri teh bolnikih. Zaradi večplastnosti in obsega težav imajo ti bolniki veliko negovalnih problemov (nezmožnosti samooskrbe, otežkočeno gibanje in hoja, moteno odvajanje, preležanine, ovirano izražanje čustev in komuniciranje, ovirano hranjenje). Celotni zdravstveni tim teži k skupnemu cilju, doseči pri bolniku/varovancu optimalno sposobnost samooskrbe in s tem samostojnost pri izvajanju dnevnih aktivnosti.
