Femoral neck injuries primarily affect older adults and are most often the result of falls, with women over 65 years old accounting for 77% of hospitalizations for this diagnosis. The high incidence of falls in the elderly is influenced by numerous factors, such as physiological muscle atrophy, reduced proprioception, and chronic diseases. Since the hip joint is fundamental to the movement system, its injury significantly reduces a person's ability to care for themselves and maintain independence, leading to dependence on their surroundings, which, combined with the high incidence rate, makes femoral neck fractures a public health issue. Treatment for fractures depends on the type of fracture and the patient's overall condition, and it can be either conservative or surgical. The most common treatment method is through surgical intervention, where osteosynthesis or partial or total hip arthroplasty may be performed. Early rehabilitation aims to achieve mobility and independence for the patient as soon as possible after surgery. The role of the nurse in the trauma and orthopedic department is to prepare and address the needs of patients during hospitalization. Adequate care is provided by planning and implementing interventions in the preoperative and postoperative periods to promote earlier recovery and prevent potential difficulties and complications. In addition to physical preparation, psychological support is also provided to ensure safety and support, significantly influencing the recovery process. Education is a cornerstone of psychological support, covering all diagnostic and therapeutic procedures during hospitalization, as well as behaviors and activities that enhance recovery.
