Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the experience of Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) coordinator nurses in a hospital setting. Methods: An in-depth interview was done using a semi-structured questionnaire on 4 FLS coordinator nurses between August 2022 and May 2023. A qualitative content analysis method was used for the data analysis. Results: Three themes of the experience of FLS coordinator were "The absence of identity of FLS coordinator," "struggling with the approach of creating something out of nothing," and "improvement of training and system to establish FLS coordinator role." Conclusion: This study identified three themes about the experience of FLS coordinator nurses in hospital setting. This finding is expected to be useful in developing education programs for FLS coordinator nurses.
