Abstract:
Advanced practice nurses are increasing in number. Such nurses include the nurse practitioner, clinical nurse specialist, nurse anesthetist, and nurse midwife. The roles of nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists have been recommended by the American Nurses Association to merge. The frustrations related to this merger are identified, and strategies are proposed to resolve them. Examples of military, civilian, and international models are provided.
