On a daily basis, we are able to be witnesses of and take part in both the growth and development of nursing. The focus of nursing in the society is primarily targeted towards prevention of diseases and protection of health. Ensuring health for all social groups is one of the goals of primary health care. Visiting nurses/patronage nurses are able to take effect in this area with their knowledge and compentences. Keeping nursing records is a professional responsibility of every medical nurse. Specific areas of action carry a specific nursing documentation. Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder, with an early occurrance of its symptoms which are necessary to notice. To be able to recognize the symptoms of delayed development, parents have to learn the normal process of a child's development. A series of symptoms is needed to establish the diagnosis for autism. Patronage nurse, working in her area of expertise, is able to assist with the detection of early symptoms. After a diagnose is made, it is our aim to enable a child with the early interventions, in order to prevent unwanted negative behaviour which accompany the diagnosis of the disorder. Patronage nurse's support is present in all segments, from facing the diagnosis as well as transferring the knowledge and educating the parents, as well as directing and advising related to following interventions.
