Biography

Ms. Vijayalakshmi Gopalan Nair is specialized in Community Health Nursing. My interest is conducting epidemiological studies (Cohort Studies). My post graduate thesis was on Influence of balanced diet among under-five children to prevent malnutrition. I have more interest in conducting on cause and effect, knowledge attitude and practice studies. Presently am involved in my doctoral program and conducting a study on prevalence of obesity among secondary school children and the associated factors. As nurses we deal with different type of patients with different experiences, hence qualitative studies will give a deeper value in exploring the experiences and interactions with related disease conditions. The new knowledge produced from these types of studies will help nurses to deliver better quality care in community and hospitals.
