Advanced Nursing Practice has been developed in
recognition of the key role nurses with advanced knowledge and
skills play in developing health care services worldwide. The book
tracks the evolution of new advanced practice nursing roles and
innovative practice models, and examines the need for international
guidelines. In exploring strategies for implementing ANP in the
context of countries’ health care needs, Advanced Nursing
Practice addresses legal and ethical challenges and
commonalities and differences in advanced nursing practice, while
examining the implications, obstacles, and facilitative strategies
in maintaining, implementing and supporting the development of
ANP.
This book provides guidance in decision-making, examines the implications for liaising with other health care professionals and encourages nurses to shape their role to the needs of their patients and practice.
