Abstract
With an increasingly growing ageing population who require assessment and on-going management of their complex healthcare needs, nursing as a profession has grown and evolved to meet these demands. Part of the changes in the nursing workforce include the development of advanced practice and the nurse practitioner role. The advanced practice role is now well established with evidence to demonstrate its effectiveness (Aitkenhead & Lee, 2019; Jennings, Lee, Chao, & Keating, 2009; Jennings et al., 2008; Lee et al., 2018; Lee et al., 2014). Advanced practice roles require advanced clinical assessment skills and the application of complex reasoning and critical thinking. Advanced practitioners make complex clinical decisions applying these advanced knowledge and skills for each patient consultation and they work closely in collaboration with colleagues that include physicians and allied health professionals.
