The Role of Advanced Practices Nursing in Patient Care

Aksana Waskosky

The role of advanced practice nurses (APNs) with post-baccalaureate graduate education in providing high-quality patient care is increasingly recognized around the world. In the context of an aging population, technological advances, and highly specialized patient care, it is vital for nurses to be prepared for an advanced role with a greater scope of practice and complexity.
In many countries, the role of advanced practice nursing is well established while in others it is still developing. While some countries have adopted the American model of APN, other countries have developed its own path in establishing the role of advanced practice nursing based on specific legislative and local requirements.
