Abstract:
Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) play a key role in psychiatry, improving access to care, managing crises and preventing relapse. They intervene in post-emergency consultations, ensuring continuity of care, adjusting treatments and coordinating treatment paths with medical teams. Their contribution helps to reduce emergency room overcrowding and secure follow-up care. The deployment of IPAs requires legislative adjustments to maximize their impact and meet growing mental health needs.
