  • So Dr Chris of the A.M.A thinks NP's will mean no-one to empty bedpans because upskilling staff will leave a void. It never ceases to amaze me how so much education results in complete idiots.

  • This is great! I love it!

    I am a Family Nurse Practitioner student in the U.S. and every time I tell people I will be an NP they look confused because there has not been enough publicity about the role. This video portrays it well. Thank you!

  • Very informative video[s] regarding the nurse practitioner role within the context of Australia. Are there any similar videos regarding doctoral training in nursing practice for nurse practitioners? I am currently a Doctor of Nursing Practice student in the US.

  • Physicians are threatened by NPs. But they shouldn't be. NPs are THE answer to primary care in Australia and North America and other parts of the world. We need physicians to do complicated care for all our residents. NPs are proven in America and patients have been shown by clinical trial evidence to get BETTER primary care from NPs than physicians.

  • Yeah the big theme is here that Nps are needed. We don't have enough doctors and in many ways NPs may be more suited and more suitable in certain situations. Thanks for your feedback. It is greatly appreciated

    The nurses and midwives team.

  • they do a lot more that just primary care...the field has and is expanding to include other specialties

  • Seems to me that the Dr's ARE worried that there status is being undermined by this. Tough. So what if there are a couple of different routes to becoming an exceptional healer.

    Dr's attitudes are so last century!

  • doctors have too much pride & are stuck up. they don't want to accept NP. why is there a need to feel threatened?

  • I know a lot of docs and none of them are threatened by NPs at least in the states...they appreciate their work, and they hire them happily...I think this "threat" stuff is all hype by the media and ignorance in general

  • im sure doctors's ego will be greatly affected with this...hahaha...im really excited to do NP course.however, in some countries NP profession is not present because Medical Doctors are not in favor of an NP role.

  • I'm Jan a BSN,RN and a Clinical Instructor and taking up my MAN major in Med/Surg. and my dream is to be a NP someday.

    From Philippines.

  • Thanks for that great documentary, from a student nurse practitioner, CANADA
