Media advisory: Expanding the scope of nursing
Conference to explore the successes and challenges of integrating specialized nurses in our healthcare system.
The varied and expanding roles of specialized nurses - like nurse practitioners - continue to evolve in our healthcare settings. The ongoing integration of these nurses is, in turn, radically transforming the care being delivered to individuals and their families. On November 10, 2011, 海角社区's School of Nursing will host a one-day conference on "Expanding the Scope of Nursing Practice: Destiny or Diversion?"
The event will bring together recognized nurse experts and local leaders in nursing and medicine to discuss their experiences - both the obstacles and the successes - in implementing role change and expanding the scope of nursing. Keynote and panel discussion topics include:
