Abstract:
The number of advanced practice nurses (APNs) is constantly growing, and this means that they are being deployed in settings other than hospitals or private practice. Long-term care units and residential establishments for dependent elderly people are among the places where these professionals are being deployed. Their main missions are to improve patient and resident follow-up and care, develop therapeutic education and promote best practices. Here's an example of APN implementation in a residential establishment for dependent elderly people. This is a recent activity, which should evolve in the future.
