What is a nurse practitioner (NP)?
Nurse practitioners (NP) are registered nurses who have undertaken further study to Master’s level and have been endorsed in the role by the Nursing Council. NP’s are authorised to work in an advanced role that includes assessing, diagnosing, ordering tests and prescribing medications for patients.
In primary care, a NP’s role overlaps with that of a GP and they offer the same range of services.
