”No one understands the hospital dynamics, family and cultural dynamics better than a #nurse. #Nurses are trained to adapt to their environments, and I believe they offer a vital perspective on how to transform spaces that can benefit patients, staff and hospital systems.” #RN

Great article regarding NP practice in Aust. Having had family benefit from NP’s care recently I hope their practice will expand. #ACNPnational

RACGP How about the @GregHuntMP Not ScoMo ensure every bit of money spent on aged care has to be publicly reported so we can see where the money goes. Safe staffing could be a way to reduce prescribing!

Significant evidence being presented today in relation to Palliative Care in Aged Care and the role of Nurse Practitioners, so important the Commissioners hear this in the words of family members, and their experience #ACNPnational #agedcareRC Nikki OAM Nurse Practitioner Palliative Care Australia

Australian Nursing & Midwifery Journal We need a public campaign on what a nurse does, and what a nurse can do if barriers are removed to allow them to work to their full abilities, improving care, access and using the health dollar efficiently #ACNPnational #Nurses #NursePractitioner #Nurses2020 #NursingNow

Thanks to Ewan Gilbert from ABC Radio Central West NSW for asking me to join him this morning to answer community questions about why they can’t and don’t have nurse practitioners providing healthcare, when the wait for a GP can be 5-6weeks. #ACNPnational #stopblockingNPs
