Open access policy

The Revista de Pesquisa Cuidado é Fundamental Online (RPCFO) follows the principle of open access, as established by the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI). This means that all content published in the RPCFO is available for free and without access barriers to any user. There is no need for registration, payment, or subscription to access the full-text articles. Users are permitted to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of articles in this journal without restrictions.

This free access policy aims to promote the broad and democratic sharing of scientific knowledge, facilitating the dissemination of research in nursing and other health areas. RPCFO believes that unrestricted access to scientific content not only strengthens collaboration and the exchange of knowledge but also enhances the social and academic impact of research.

In compliance with BOAI principles, we encourage the responsible use of published knowledge, ensuring that copyright is respected according to applicable licenses, such as Creative Commons, promoting ethical reuse and proper credit to authors.
