Nurse Practitioners

Advanced Nurse Practitioners are registered nurses who have completed extra training and academic qualifications to be able to clinically assess, diagnose, refer and treat patients who present with undiagnosed or undifferentiated problems. Advanced Nurse Practitioners are highly-trained health professionals that can undertake complex reviews of patients, similar to GPs. They can assess symptoms and build a picture of a patient’s condition, treat minor health problems, infections, minor injuries and prescribe medication where necessary. They can also often manage more complicated problems, for instance, patients presenting with long term health conditions, such as diabetes and COPD.
