However, people without stable housing face multiple structural, administrative and relational barriers that limit this right, especially in European contexts such as Spain.

The selection was made by convenience sampling in a municipal homeless shelter.

Nursing can play a key role in transforming the healthcare model towards one that is more inclusive, dignified, and focused on equity.
