The evolving role of nurse practitioners

How is the role of nurse practitioners (NPs) evolving? How are VCH-Vancouver NPs meeting patient needs in community and acute care? What’s it like to work with NPs?

At our May Vancouver All-Staff Forum, we’ll examine these and other questions about the NP role and what this profession means for staff, physicians and our shared patients/clients.
