Engaging patients as full partners in their care p

Engaging patients as full partners in their care plan is an important aspect of the underlying philosophy of NPLCs.

Learn more about NPLCs in Ontario by visiting npao.org.

The Government of Ontario has capped the number of NPLCs in Ontario at 25. Increasing the number of NPLCs will ensure all Ontarians have access to primary care. Ask your MPP for more NPLCs in Ontario ➡️ https://www.supportnursepractitioners.ca/send-a-letter-to-your-mpp

What is a Nurse Practitioner? Nurse Practitioners

What is a Nurse Practitioner?
Nurse Practitioners (NPs), also known as Registered Nurses in the Extended Class, begin their nursing career as Registered Nurses and become NPs with an advanced graduate education degree (i.e. Masters degree) as well as additional nursing experience and exam requirements. They work independently but are most often found working as key members with an integrated health care team. Nurse Practitioners have the competence to provide comprehensive health assessments, to diagnose health/illness conditions, and to treat and manage acute and chronic illness within a holistic model of care.

At a time when there is a shortage of primary care providers, Nurse Practitioners present an opportunity for Government to close the many gaps in our health care system.

Visit npao.org to learn more about what an NP can do for you!
