What is a Nurse Practitioner led clinic?
Nurse Practitioner Led clinics are an innovative model for delivery of comprehensive primary health care. The model is designed to improve access to care for the thousands of individuals and families who do not currently have a primary health-care provider or access to timely care. One of the unique aspects of the model is the incorporation of nursing leadership within a collaborative approach to primary care.
