The Castelló Health Department, the Universitat Jaume I and the Fisabio Foundation today held the 4th Conference for research managers, which in this edition focused on nursing research and innovation. Julio Fernández Garrido, Director of Health Management of the Regional Ministry of Health, analysed in the inaugural conference the current state of research in nursing.

As he explained, research in this field is very recent compared to other disciplines and there was a lack of training in research methodology until the arrival of the European Higher Education Area, which has allowed nurses to continue their training. "The academic ceiling imposed by the diploma has been broken and we can continue on the path of research, but training in research methodology is still insufficient and much of the scientific production suffers from a certain lack of quality," he pointed out.

However, Fernández Garrido affirmed that "the scientific production of Spanish nursing is at a very good level". According to the Scimago Journal Rank, Spain is the seventh largest producer of nursing scientific articles in the world and third in Europe. "This progression makes us suspect that we will go for the better because in 2014 we had increased scientific production by 10%, in 2016 by 18%, and in 2020 by 25%, despite being a pandemic year", he pointed out. In addition, the areas of primary care, with a third position worldwide and second place in Europe, and critical care, with a fifth position worldwide and second at European level, stand out especially.

Finally, the Director of Health Management of the Regional Ministry of Health stated that in order to position Spain among the benchmark countries we need time, so that people who have studied master's degrees and doctorates begin to produce; more training in research methodologies in the curricula; funding from governments, universities and institutions, and high-impact Spanish journals.

To conclude, he addressed the professionals in attendance with a reflection on the future of nursing: "In the coming years you are going to face complex and serious problems in the globalized world and, in all of them, the need to take care of people remains constant. This challenge must be faced with passion, commitment and, above all, with research, science, commitment and leadership", he said. In this sense, he added that the pandemic has made clear the need for people care to be the main point of reference in health care and that "nurses have the obligation to promote the development of our profession", he concluded.
