Sammanfattning
The role of the Nurse Practitioner
has successfully been developed
internationally within different
areas of health care. To satisfy
the needs of health care of the
population in Sweden, an optimal
utilization of the available
resources is demanded and treatment
of health care problems at
an appropriate level of care is
required to be able to give health
care with good availability, high
quality and safety. A collaboration
started between the Primary
Health Care in the county of Skaraborg
and the University of
Skövde to develop the role of the
district nurses in primary health
care toward a more specialized
function with the competence to
independently make decisions
and solve health care problems.
The plans of this new role in the
health care system gained approval
at the National Board of
Health and Welfare and other
public authorities. St Martin´s
College, Great Britain and University
of Rhode Island, USA
have also been partners of collaboration.
The result of the work
became a curriculum of a new
education in Sweden - Advanced
Nursing Practice in Primary
Health Care.
