Introduction and purpose: A modern family nurse, who is a professional in a team, has to continuously improve her/his professional skills. This is due to the regulations on the profession of a nurse and midwife and other legal documents. The aim of the presented study is to provide information on the role of medical journals in improving the skills of a family nurse. Brief description of the state of knowledge: The nurses have the ability to deepen their knowledge through participation in various forms of professional development, including complementary studies, postgraduate and training courses.

Another form of professional development is the reading of specialist and professional literature. Scientific journals have always been and should continue to be a modern, fast source of scientific information in the field of nursing, and for an exchange of experiences between nurses.

Summary: Medical journals are a valuable source of information which will greatly enhance the knowledge of health professionals. The article presents the advantages and disadvantages of medical journals.Key words: medical journals, family nurse, professional development
